My name is Jeanne, pronunciation is (Janay). I believe that young adults, teenagers and military personal shouldn't have to struggle as much as they do. We can start the process by talking, I will provide a safe space to talk about all the challenges that come from stress, emotional challenges, anxiety, body image and relationship challenges. I have experience working with young adults, teenagers and military, I was active duty myself.
You can expect to feel heard, valued and respected. As well as given the opportunity to ask me questions.
I feel my greatest strengths as a therapist are listening, being positive, encouraging and supportive. As well as being direct and to the point if that is what you are looking for. If you can't set up a session on the Grow platform or calendar, please email me at therapywithjeanne12@gmail.com
Jeanne Spence offers therapy covered by Health Plan of San Joaquin - Medi-Cal in California.
I have always used Solution Focused as my go to for therapy. It helps the client state what they want to work on and how we can work together to make the change they want. It is goal oriented and driven with a collaborative approach.
I was always driven to the "here and now" approach, which is based on the idea that the clients' interpersonal issues will eventually emerge in the therapeutic relationship. This helps focus on the clients' feelings and reactions as they happen in therapy.
When working with clients who are currently struggling with relationship and communication issues, I have recently started using this method to go back to their childhood and learn about their early interactions between caregiver(s) and the development of healthy emotional relationships as an adult.
