Nancy Jenkins graduated with a master’s in counseling (mental health) from the University of Missouri-Kansas City in May 2022. She has a bachelor degree in journalism from the University of Missouri-Columbia (1982) and a master’s degree in integrated marketing communications from the University of Kansas (2003).

I have chosen counseling as my ‘Third Act’ following a 35-year career in publishing, public relations, and marketing communications. I believe my experiences provide a unique understanding of the many life challenges my clients may face, including divorce, military life, brain injury, addiction, and caring for elderly parents. I use a person-centered approach and view my role as one of facilitator in helping clients overcome any personal challenges and create their best lives.

Nancy is married to Truett and stepmom to three grown daughters. She has 19 years in recovery and is a volunteer for Green Works Kansas City. She enjoys walking the family’s German Shepherd Dog, spending time with family and friends, gardening, movies, traveling, camping, and reading.
