I’m Virginia Jenkins, LPC
aka The Resistance Therapist (and one of the most “resistant” people I know).
With over 13 years of professional training and experience, I have come to deeply respect the resistance that lives in each of us. I created this project as a space for you to understand and befriend resistance as your greatest ally, whether in your work with clients or in your own personal journey. And for those who (like me) find yourselves here for both purposes, you are doubly welcome.
“Virginia's workshop felt close, practical and also vulnerable and human.
She explained and suggested exercises that allowed me to widen my perspective about resistance and invited me from a curious place to connect with my personal resistances and the ones that I bring at my job. Thank you for your easy, grounded and open energy.”
