More about Jenelia

  • 15 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

Hi there! I am Jenelia Branson, a Licensed Professional Counselor, National Board Certified Counselor, and National Certified School Counselor. I have over 15 years of experience. I have a heart for marriages and youth; therefore, I am also an advocate for families as well! And if you are single (satisfied or still searching), I've got a heart for you, too! I genuinely have a sincere interest to see others succeed in life, especially in the area of mental health!

I want to see/hear about you doing better and living your life wholeheartedly! Together, we will work to help you reclaim your independence on your journey towards health and healing. We will build a solid foundation of trust within our client-counselor relationship so you feel the freedom to release and not be judged. The end goal is to help guide you towards the strength and know-how to recognize, reduce, and/or relieve symptoms through therapeutic techniques and resources in order to reach wholeness, restore relationships, and acquire healthier ways of living.

I am genuine and compassionate! I’ve been called a “people whisperer” which I find as an honor but mostly humbles me. I have heard a wide range of stories both interesting and what would seem far-fetched, so know that you can be comfortable sharing with me. I was born to do this…listen to and learn from others as they open their minds and hearts towards wholeness and better health. Oh yeah, and if we can have fun along the way, that too! I want you to ENJOY your life....whatever phase you're in!

So what are you waiting for? Things CAN get better! So let’s get started today!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Jenelia is very empathetic and a great listener. She really cares about me and my concerns. She offers helpful advice. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Reviewed February 2023

Jenelia is kind and gentle, and knows how to help you come to your own conclusions with leading questions to make you think and reflect. She's always responsive, even outside of sessions and I have certainly found her suggestions helpful. I tried another BetterHelp therapist before finding Jenelia and I've been with her for over a year. I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and supportive soul to help navigate life's difficulties and learn more about oneself doing it.

Jenelia is extremely easy to communicate with and her approach allows me to engage effectively. I feel challenged in a good way to delve deeper and learn more about who I am.

Reviewed July 2022

Jenelia is by far the best therapist I’ve had. She is such a thorough listener and prioritizes my main concerns or issues going on. Talking with her is the highlight of my week, I always feel so much better after our sessions. She is not judgmental in any form, she is also a therapist I can laugh with and not feel awkward. Even during the weeks when we don’t have a session, messaging her is just as helpful. I have never felt so seen and welcomed by a therapist. Highly recommend her!!

Jenelia has been such a positive figure in my life since working with her. She has helped me learn the root of my anxieties and has helped create better habits for myself. Couldn’t recommend her enough!

Reviewed May 2022

Jenelia has literally been a life-saver! She's a perfect match for me - exactly who I was hoping I'd find as a mental health therapist. I was nervous that using a virtual therapist would equate to feeling disconnected, feeling like a knock-off version of real in-person therapy, and wouldn't be worth the cost after a few sessions, but not so! Even though I don't message every day, knowing that I can easily send a message to her anytime I have ANY overwhelming feelings or thoughts makes me feel like I have a lifeline always with me. In regards to her therapy sessions: She listens actively and completely, often recalling even small details in previous conversations months ago. I feel like I am speaking with a true professional in her field! Jenelia is intentional, respectful, and knowledgeable. I feel like she truly hears me and my heart, understands my goals, and works with me efficiently to achieve them. I have been bragging non-stop about seeking therapy through BetterHelp with anyone who will listen, and that is all thanks to Jenelia. I am sincerely grateful!

More than anything, I appreciate the true willingness to listen and share feedback. So often people already know (or think they know) what you’re going to say before you voice it and have a response or solution, but I don’t feel that way about Jenelia at all. I’m so glad that I gave BetterHelp another shot by choosing another therapist and was connected with her. She’s truly been a blessing to me.

Jenelia is so attentive to my needs. Listens and does not make me feel ashamed, but directs me to refocus my thoughts. She offers so many positive ideas to help me get through my depression, feeling of loneliness. I trust her and feel as though I can tell her anything good or bad. I would love to continue if I can have 3 more sessions on coping skills. I do not feel anxious after talking with Jenele. It just goes away. I will continue to pour into myself and state affirmations. I am not damaged goods, I am highly favored, I am blessed........
