Javonni Henderson, LCSW

Clinical Social Worker dedicated to providing quality therapeutic and coaching services to teens and adults ready to embark on their healing and wellness journey.

I work with individuals ages 18 and older, couples, and families. My areas of specialty include mood disorders; traumatic stress disorders; stress management; Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder management, relationship conflict between partners/spouses, family, and friends; and child protection services (CPS)-related cases. I am trained in Motivational Interviewing, neurobiological effects of trauma, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT), Forward-Facing Trauma Therapy, CBT, solution-focused brief therapy, and integrative therapy. I am dedicated to helping each person I work with on their healing and wellness journey, so they can live their best life.

In addition to psychotherapy, I also provide personal development coaching services for those who may not have a medical need for therapy but want to develop their self-awareness and better understand themselves and how the relate to the others. This is especially helpful for people who struggle with people-pleasing behaviors, perfectionism, interpersonal conflict, and self-image. If you are not sure if it is therapy or coaching that would be most beneficial, I can make a recommendation based on your overall assessment during the intake process.

As a culturally affirming and responsive practitioner, I am intentional to incorporate my clients’ cultural strengths. I respectfully seek to understand my clients’ cultural lenses from which they view the systems they operate in and presenting issues involved.
In both my therapeutic and coaching styles, I practice from a client-centered, strength-based, holistic approach. I incorporate multi-media psychoeducation and resources, productive feedback, and exercises on an ongoing basis. I believe you know where you want to go in your healing and wellness journey, and it is my privilege to help you get there.
