About Jendaya
Jendaya Clark is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common struggles like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and career questions, and she lists young adult issues among her focus areas.
She has a background in community mental health and both individual and group counseling. That background means she is used to short-term practical concerns and longer conversations that look at ongoing patterns. Sessions typically involve talking through current problems, building clearer ways to respond to stress, and practicing small changes that can add up over time.
Jendaya often supports people facing life transitions such as graduation, entering the workforce, relationship changes like marriage, caring for aging parents, and health issues including cancer and fertility worries. She also lists multicultural concerns, forgiveness, self-love, social anxiety, and polyamory or non-monogamous relationship questions as additional areas she works with.
Her approach draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. That means she focuses on values, direct skills for thoughts and behavior, and a collaborative, person-centered way of talking together.
She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and a scheduled first session are used to get started and set practical next steps.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters to them and take small, values-based steps forward. It can be useful for anxiety, feeling stuck after school, or uncertainty about early career choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and trying different behaviors to change how someone feels. It often helps with social anxiety, low mood, and managing stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide whether ACT, CBT, client-centered conversations, or a mix fits best. That choice is guided by the client's goals, daily life, and what feels realistic to practice between sessions.
Confirm session formats before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, keep shorter check-ins during a work break, or avoid travel time. It also allows people to work with a licensed professional from a different state or country, which can be helpful for students, recent graduates, and those who move for work. Discuss practical needs during the matching questionnaire and first session so sessions can be scheduled to fit everyday routines.
