I have worked in the mental health field since 1991 when I began as a psychiatric technician at the Wyoming State Hospital.

I have experience as a therapist working in the mental health field as well as substance abuse field and worked at Project Reality as an intern and at Odyssey House and Cornerstone Counseling as a primary therapist in residential and outpatient settings. Modalities I use in therapy are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral therapy and other solution oriented approaches in my therapy as well as art, existential and narrative therapies. Due to my anthropology background, I enjoy working with individuals from various ethnic and religious backgrounds and I am culturally sensitive and informed in my practice. I also have experience working with the LGBTQ+ community. I like to make sure that my clients feel that they are in a “safe place” where they can share their feelings without judgement of any kind.

Hi, my name is Jeanie. (legal name Norma Jean, but I’ve always gone by Jeanie) I have a master’s degree in social work. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have been working in the social work field for 30 years but as a LCSW for 18 years. I have experience working with adults of all ages on issues ranging from depression, anxiety, addiction, anger management, trauma, grief, and many more. I have also spent 18 years working part time with parents who have children with either a disability or a developmental delay. We have worked on the anxiety, depression, guilt and grief among other topics as it has been relevant and needed. I love working with individuals to help them make changes in their lives. Life does come with unexpected challenges and how we react and work through those challenges can often be overwhelming and we sometimes need assistance. Reaching out can be overwhelming. I have a passion for helping others meet those challenges and making changes. Feeling like someone is actually listening to you and focusing on you is so important, especially in today's world. As a therapist, I focus on each person’s specific needs and I adjust my style accordingly. I want to meet you where you are at and work on the goals you have in mind. I tend to draw from solution focused, strengths based and cognitive behavioral areas in order to help folks problem solve things that are going on currently and in the past. I also believe in setting goals, and developing homework with the client that will help the client be accountable and responsible for their own change process. This has worked well for my client’s and outcomes have been positive. I look forward to working with you!
