About Wanda

Wanda Jensen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Montana with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family issues, grief, anger, bipolar mood concerns, and ADHD. She also lists additional focus areas such as attachment issues, codependency, communication problems, and isolation or loneliness.

Wanda grew up in a small Montana town and often draws on the importance of family and community connections when helping clients. She uses systems theory to look at how family, friends, social settings, finances, and the home environment shape present difficulties. This broader view helps her and the person she is working with identify patterns that keep problems going.

She also has a degree in Applied Behavior Analysis, which she uses to understand what drives behaviors and habits. That background supports practical goal-setting and building new skills to replace unhelpful patterns. Wanda describes herself as growth minded and focuses on concrete steps people can try between sessions.

Her listed clinical approaches include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. She also practices EMDR, which she uses with people processing traumatic memories and related distress.

Wanda aims to help people strengthen relationships and develop coping skills that fit their lives. To begin, visitors are asked to use the site matching process and schedule an initial appointment to see how her approach fits their needs.

How her approaches translate to online work

Wanda often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them, and then pick actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for worries, avoidance, and decisions about meaningful living.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another frequent tool. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with day-to-day experiments. This approach is practical for anxiety, low mood, and building problem-solving skills.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at relationship patterns that affect how people relate and cope. That work can help when past connections influence current trust, closeness, or conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Wanda will work together with the person she sees to choose which methods fit best based on goals, current needs, and what feels manageable. That may mean trying different techniques and adjusting as progress is tracked.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Discussing practical preferences at the first appointment helps plan sessions that match everyday life.
