Background and approach
Jeanette supports people navigating divorce, control issues, guilt, and finding life purpose. In sessions she centers the client's experience and choices. Conversations aim to clarify what matters most and set small, doable goals.
She encourages clients to use their own strengths while trying out new ways of relating and coping. Her style is straightforward and supportive. She offers practical tools for communication and managing intense feelings.
She also works on rebuilding confidence after hurt or loss. Jeanette combines focused conversation with homework you can use between sessions. That might include simple behavioral experiments, communication scripts, or reflection prompts.
Her goal is to help people leave therapy with skills they can use in daily life.
Evidence-Based Techniques and Online Care
Jeanette uses practical, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address day-to-day problems and deeper emotional pain. One common approach focuses on communication skills - teaching clear ways to express needs, set boundaries, and repair tension in close relationships. This helps when arguments repeat or when people feel unheard.Another approach centers on managing emotions and behavior - learning small experiments to test beliefs, reduce impulsive actions, and handle intense feelings more effectively. These steps are useful for anger, anxiety, and mood struggles. A third area involves rebuilding self-image and addressing sexuality or body image concerns through guided reflection and behavioral steps to increase self-acceptance.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to a client’s goals and try methods that fit their situation. Together they track what helps and adjust the plan over time so work in sessions connects to real life.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and text messaging let people keep momentum between appointments and fit brief check-ins into a busy day.
