It's great to meet you. Here's a little about me: Like my parents, I became a therapist after getting my Masters Degree from the University of Kansas. My career taught me how movement, food and sleep affect a person's mental health. This lead me to treat eating disorders. I've been practicing for a decade and I see clients in Kansas & Missouri. I work with adults who have an eating disorder. I'd like to offer you a 15-min consult where we'll continue this conversation to see if we're a good fit.

Stephanie Jenkins

Therapist

Virtual • Missouri


As a therapist for adolescents, teens, and young adults, my goal is to be a steady and supportive presence as they work through the unique struggles that come with growing up. I understand the pressures, uncertainties, and opportunities that each stage of life brings, and I’m dedicated to helping my clients build the skills and self-awareness needed to navigate their individual paths. With a collaborative and non-judgmental approach, I encourage open communication, self-expression, and personal empowerment, creating a space where each client can feel heard and valued.

Outside of my professional role, you can often find me lost in the pages of a good book, seeking inspiration and new perspectives. I thrive on adventure, whether it’s exploring the great outdoors or embarking on spontaneous journeys. At home, I find solace in the company of my beloved pets, whose unconditional love and companionship bring joy to my everyday life. These passions enrich my work as a therapist, reminding me daily of the importance of balance, curiosity, and meaningful connections.

If you’re a teen, young adult, or parent looking for support during these uncertain times, know that help is just a click away. Therapy can be a powerful tool in building the skills and confidence needed to thrive, no matter what challenges come your way. Begin your journey of self-discovery and growth in a space where you can truly be yourself. Let’s work together to create a future that feels hopeful, empowered, and authentic.

Jake Wilmes- Journey Psyche Profile

Through years of practice treating adults with acute and chronic mental health

diagnoses, he has developed an effective, patient-centered approach to treating

psychiatric symptoms. Jake has a strong background in treating individuals

experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and various other psychiatric

related concerns.

Approach/Style

My focused approach to psychiatric care utilizes compassionate, collaborative, and

patient-centered style of patient care. I believe every patient is unique and presents with

their own distinctive treatment needs when providing psychiatric care. I strive to create a

welcoming, non-judgmental environment where each person feels heard, respected,

and understood. I believe patients should be active participants in their care, and I work

alongside them to develop individualized treatment plans that align with their own

distinctive goals, values, and expected treatment outcomes.
