My name is Jeanne, pronunciation is (Janay). I have a passion for listening to people, understanding their wants and together finding the best way to make changes that you want in your life. I value that this time is your time and I want you (the client) to feel that you are in control of your session. I can be direct if that is what you want. I like to hear what you liked/disliked from any past therapy experiences, that helps me help you.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

They can expect to feel heard, valued and respected. As well as given the opportunity to ask me questions if they want.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I feel my greatest strengths as a therapist are listening, being positive, always encouraging and supportive. As well as being direct and to the point.

My treatment methods

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

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.

Gestalt

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.

Attachment-based

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.
