Background and approach
Jeanne holds the credential Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, and is also a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC. Her clinical background includes work in community and outpatient settings and administrative roles that inform how she organizes care. In sessions she emphasizes a person-centered, non-directive stance.
That means she follows the client’s priorities and helps them notice options, rather than prescribing one fixed plan. With children and adolescents she uses Play Therapy techniques to let kids express difficult feelings through play and activities. Jeanne also supports people facing substance use concerns and has experience addressing compulsive behaviors.
Her approach blends empathy, practical problem solving, and attention to each person’s cultural and personal background. She aims to help clients find steps they feel ready to try. People connect with her for straightforward guidance, gentle encouragement, and a focus on realistic change.
Sessions include talking, planning small steps, and checking progress over time.

04Online support
How her approaches translate to online care
Jeanne uses evidence-based techniques that translate well to remote work. Person-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping clients identify their own goals; online sessions use conversation and structured check-ins to track small changes and next steps. Play Therapy for children adapts by using toys, drawing, and guided activities during video sessions so kids can show feelings rather than only talk about them. Support for substance use and compulsive behaviors emphasizes planning, monitoring urges, and practicing coping skills through role play and brief between-session tasks.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Jeanne will discuss options, try what makes sense, and adjust methods based on a client's needs, goals, and comfort. She looks for approaches that fit a person's daily life and strengths rather than forcing a single technique.
Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and use of visual materials, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, live chat supports real-time exchanges without audio, and text-based messaging helps people share between sessions or when immediate feedback is helpful. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family schedules while keeping continuity of care.
