She has spent many years providing individual therapy and group psycho-education to clients outside of inpatient and partial hospitalization settings, with extensive experience supporting those impacted by trauma.

Her practice emphasizes overall health and wellness, using a solution-focused framework that integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Reality Therapy (RT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI) to foster self-efficacy and practical coping skills. Jeanette designs individualized treatment plans that respond to each person’s unique circumstances and stated goals, drawing on life-skill strategies and therapeutic techniques that fit the client’s needs.

Jeanette understands how difficult it can be to reach out for help and values the confident, empowering work of healing what she describes as the wounded child. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), she aims to support motivation, application, and implementation so clients can embrace change and move toward desired outcomes. For those ready to begin, Jeanette offers a collaborative starting point to create and live a personal success story.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care

Jeanette Grissom draws on well-established therapeutic methods to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to build practical coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness techniques useful for intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and problems with impulsivity. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that helps process distressing memories and reduce their hold on daily functioning, often benefiting people with post-traumatic stress and trauma-related symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jeanette works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts methods over time so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model on every case.

Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it possible to receive consistent care around work, family, or other commitments. These options allow licensed professionals to provide ongoing support, skill building, and therapeutic guidance in ways that suit each client’s schedule and comfort.
