Hello
Hi, I’m DeShonna Jenkins—a therapist, author, certified relational coach and passionate advocate for self-care. I hold a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Bachelor’s in Psychology, and I am currently a PhD applicant. As I journey, my work will been driven by one central goal: to empower both therapists and clients with tools that foster growth, resilience, and balance.
​
​When I’m not creating therapeutic resources or writing, you can usually find me journaling, reading, enjoying a chai latte, or taking peaceful walks in the park. These simple joys fuel my own wellness practice and remind me of the importance of slowing down, reflecting, and caring for ourselves.
My Story
The idea for The Therapeutic Thread was born out of both professional experience and personal reflection. As a therapist, I often found myself searching for practical, meaningful resources to support my clients—tools that not only guided the therapeutic process but also nurtured self-care, creativity, and growth. At the same time, I realized how essential it is for therapists themselves to feel supported, inspired, and equipped in their own journeys.
That’s why I created this platform: a place where therapists can find workbooks, journals, and therapeutic tools designed to strengthen practice, encourage reflection, and enhance well-being. My hope is that The Therapeutic Thread becomes more than just a resource hub—it becomes a community that reminds therapists of the power of connection, creativity, and care.
