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.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Jeanette Grissom. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

I have only had a few sessions with Jeanette but she is straight forward & does not sugar coat anything. She is helpful & challenges me to see things the way they are & not how I want them to be.

Jeanette listens, but is also so very experienced that she's able to bridge the gap, even when I'm not able to. I really appreciate that quality, especially as someone who's mindset has had to change about mental wellbeing; she's made the transition so much easier!
