About Jeanine

Jeanine Marshall Tillman is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and trauma. She speaks plainly and aims to make therapy approachable for someone juggling daily demands. Sessions are practical and focused on small changes that add up over time.

Her work blends clear tools with reflective moments. She often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors.

Background and approach

Mindfulness practices help slow racing thoughts and ground people in the present. Solution-focused methods highlight strengths and set short-term, achievable goals. Jeanine holds an LPC, which is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas.

She has six years of clinical experience and keeps a straightforward style in sessions. People can expect someone who listens, asks concrete questions, and offers simple steps to try between meetings. She also addresses specific concerns such as adoption and foster care issues, attachment and abandonment worries, blended family adjustments, caregiver stress, communication problems, and effects of domestic violence.

Jeanine uses techniques aimed at improving communication, coping with strong emotions, and building predictable routines. Work with her typically looks like setting a clear goal, trying small behavior changes or thought exercises, and reviewing progress. The focus is on practical problem solving that fits real family life.

She offers services in English and accepts international clients from Texas.

How Jeanine Uses Practical Therapies Online

Jeanine often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change thought patterns that increase stress or anxiety. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, and helps create simple experiments to try new responses. Mindfulness Therapy is another tool she uses to slow down intense emotions and bring attention to the present moment; this can be useful for anxiety, rumination, and trauma symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Jeanine works together with each person to weigh goals, preferences, and what feels doable at home. That collaborative process helps decide whether to focus on thought work, mindfulness practice, quick solution-focused goals, or a mix of methods.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy family lives and different comfort levels. These formats let people connect from home, squeeze in a session between obligations, or use brief messages for ongoing support. The range of options supports flexibility while keeping therapy aimed at clear, practical progress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
