Background and approach
She holds New York LMHC and Virginia LPC credentials and has worked across community and outpatient settings. Her background includes roles with children and families as well as administrative responsibilities in mental health programs. Her approach centers on a non-directive, person-centered style.
That means she focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping people find their own solutions rather than giving instructions. With children and adolescents she also uses Play Therapy techniques that let kids use play to show what they are feeling and thinking. In sessions Jeanne works with practical concerns like coping with anxiety, managing anger, improving self-esteem, and navigating parenting stress.
She also supports people facing addiction, trauma, depression, bipolar mood concerns, relationship strain, and compassion fatigue. She describes therapy as a team effort where the client’s goals guide the work. Jeanne offers several online session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
She encourages prospective clients to reach out and begin the matching process to see if her style fits their needs.
Approaches in Online Sessions and What They Do
Jeanne uses person-centered counseling, which focuses on listening carefully, reflecting what matters most, and supporting people as they identify their own next steps. This approach helps with stress, anxiety, self-esteem, and figuring out how to make practical life changes.For children and adolescents she uses Play Therapy methods that let young people communicate through play. Play is used to help kids express feelings, process difficult events, and practice new ways of coping without relying only on words.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Jeanne works with clients to decide which methods match their goals and preferences, adjusting techniques as the work evolves so sessions stay relevant and practical.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls are close to an in-person visit and let visual cues guide the conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow quick check-ins, written reflection, and support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling into work, school, or parenting schedules while still working toward concrete goals.
