About me

I am an outpatient Co-occurring Mental Health and Substance Abuse Counselor Licensed in Indiana with over 36 years of experience providing a wide range of treatment services to non-inpatient and non-partial hospitalization hurting people. Individual Therapy and Group Psycho-Education Therapy have been the foundation of services I have provided. Additionally, I have worked with Trauma-Impacted people for many years.

Overall health and wellness represent my counseling style. My counseling approach is solution focused integrating and incorporating mostly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Reality Therapy (RT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI) to empower and to promote self-efficacy in people.

I utilize the unique situations of every person to design an Individual Treatment Plan that addresses the presented and expressed needs of each person seeking service. I understand how difficult it is to reach out for help and I also understand the power and confidence gained in healing the wounded child.

The first step is getting started. If you are ready to start your journey, I look forward to helping you create and live your success story.

Specialties:
*Depression
*Anxiety
*Addictions/Disorders
*PTSD/Trauma
*Coping Skills/Tools
*Self Esteem/Self Image
*Communication Problems
*Relationship Issues

I am comfortable with and have experience providing a variety of therapeutic treatment approaches and life skill enhancement strategies. Efficacy is the end result of a person’s motivation, application and implementation efforts to embrace change that aligns with the person’s desired outcome. What I don’t know, I learn. Where I can help, I do. My primary focus is overall health and wellness.

Jeanette It's very helpful in guiding me through some of the most difficult times I've faced in life. I would rate her higher than 10 if I could, anyone who happens to come across her as a therapist is quite lucky!

Mrs. Jeanette is the real deal. She has literally changed my life and made me feel like healing and being a better version of myself are not on possible but vital to my happiness and success. I simply can’t imagine where I would be without her. She is everything a therapist should be and more.

Written on Mar 14, 2025 after therapy with Jeanette for 2 years and 5 months on issues concerning grief

I have only had 3 weekly sessions with Jeanette so far, but she has helped me tremendously. She is a great person to talk to but it’s the way that she’s able to pull things out of you & help you identify a deeper issue within your own self. She pushes me to think even deeper than I already do, to get to the root cause.

I highly recommend Jeanette!!
