Pamela Jenkins
Mental Health Therapist

I am a Licensed Social Worker with 30 + years of experience as a medical social worker, mental health clinician, group work, health and life coach, and stress management. I am passionate about helping people to regain the best version of self. My mantra is to gear clients toward looking at the whole self to truly become well mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. I also enjoy working with adolescents and teens.

I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Cincinnati. I have also completed specialized training as a Licensed Massage Therapist, Certified Health and Wellness Coach, Certified Yoga Instructor and Functional Nutrition Counselor. I am currently working with Better You Counseling on a part time basis as a licensed provider and look forward to working with you. 

My professional focus at Better You Counseling is providing individual therapy for those suffering with acute or chronic mental and emotional wellness. My interest exists in working with individuals diagnosed with chronic illness such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease, etc. Also I specialize in groupwork, grief, holistic wellness and stress management.

Outside of work I enjoy working out, practicing yoga, cooking, spending time with family and friends, reading, volunteering, traveling and listening to jazz. I truly believe in work life balance even though I don’t always practice what I preach. Taking care of self is extremely important and can never be stressed enough.
