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.

I appreciate the fact Jeanette wants me to use action steps to provide change in my life!

I’ve never done therapy before and I strongly believe that BetterHelp couldn’t have given me a better therapist. Going into my first session I was extremely anxious, but the level of comfortability Jeanette provides makes me feel like I’m speaking to a relative. I truly feel seen as a person and not like a “patient”. I enjoy my sessions with Jeanette so much they’ve become the highlight of my day!

She is such a wonder therapist. It’s obvious she has so much experience and expertise, and I’ve noticed a shift in my thinking and well being already in the short time I have been working with her so far.
