About Jeanette
Her career began in Sacramento, California, where she earned her master’s degree and clinical license more than 30 years ago. Over that time she has supported children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, and has extensive experience working with people facing PTSD, trauma, bipolar disorder, major depression, OCD, and borderline personality challenges. She also counsels caregivers who are supporting elderly or chronically ill family members through difficult medical and end-of-life situations.
Jeanette draws from evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy, tailoring interventions to each person’s needs and pace. She has developed practical stages for moving forward after major losses and life transitions and emphasizes trust and a collaborative therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change. Jeanette supervises clinicians pursuing licensure and welcomes the opportunity to support clients as they take the often-difficult first step toward healing.
Approach-Focused Care Delivered Online
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness, making it helpful for strong emotional reactions, relationship difficulties, and coping with intense stress.
Narrative Therapy invites clients to reframe and retell their life stories so problems are seen in context rather than defined by a single identity. This approach can support people working through loss, identity issues, and challenging transitions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work Jeanette does with each client. She collaborates on treatment decisions, matching methods to a person’s goals, preferences, and the specific issues they bring to therapy. That collaborative process helps create a plan that feels manageable and meaningful.
Online therapy with Jeanette is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and needs. These options make it possible to receive consistent support from licensed professionals without rearranging life around appointments, which can help sustain progress over time.
