About Jendaya
Jendaya Clark is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with seven years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and the challenges that come with life changes. Jendaya also supports those dealing with career concerns and compassion fatigue.
She has a background in community mental health and both individual and group counseling. In sessions she treats everyday problems in straightforward ways. She listens, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, and practices new responses together.
Jendaya uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns that keep problems going and to test different behaviors that can reduce distress. She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people clarify values and take meaningful action. Client-Centered Therapy informs how she follows a person’s pace and priorities.
Her work includes additional focus on cancer, forgiveness, multicultural concerns, and non-monogamous relationship issues. Jendaya also addresses self-love, social anxiety and phobia, women’s concerns, and young adult issues. These topics often appear alongside stress, mood, or life transitions.
Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Practical steps are emphasized in therapy - noticing patterns, trying small experiments, and adjusting what isn’t working. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting through the platform’s booking flow.
How CBT, ACT, and Client-Centered Work Online
Jendaya uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice upsetting thoughts and test different behaviors that reduce anxiety or low mood. CBT focuses on concrete steps and short experiments to change what people do and think. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to clarify values and encourage action even when difficult thoughts or feelings remain. ACT helps when someone wants to move toward what matters despite uncomfortable emotions. Client-Centered Therapy means sessions are paced around the person’s priorities and perspective, with the therapist following the client’s lead and reflecting what they say.Finding the right approach is collaborative. Jendaya will discuss goals and preferred ways of working, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That means trying structured CBT exercises alongside ACT skills or a more listening-based session when needed.
The practical benefit of online work is fitting therapy into daily life. Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to meet during a lunch break, avoid travel time, or do shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Therapists can use structured worksheets, behavioral experiments, and values-guided homework that translate well to remote sessions.
