About Jeanne

Jeanne Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who uses practical, evidence-based therapy to help people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship strains, addiction, parenting challenges, and life changes. She explains ideas plainly and focuses on concrete steps people can take between sessions. Jeanne has seven years of counseling experience and works from Texas.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and client-centered work to help people notice thoughts and choose different actions.

Background and approach

She often assigns short exercises to practice new skills between meetings. Jeanne also uses EMDR for trauma processing and elements of the Gottman Method for relationship work when appropriate. In sessions Jeanne listens first and then helps people set small, doable goals.

She pays attention to how past experiences shape present choices while keeping the focus on what can be done now. Conversations are practical and aimed at changes that fit a person’s everyday life. Jeanne has training in workplace and leadership topics and blends that perspective into coaching-style work when helpful.

That background supports people managing career stress, caregiver strain, or burnout while they work on personal wellbeing. She emphasizes skills that carry over to family and parenting situations. Therapy is conducted through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging using a subscription model.

To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules based on therapist availability.

Online therapy methods and what they help with

Jeanne commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people shift unhelpful thinking and take values-driven action. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thought that keep problems going and teaching practical tools to change those patterns. ACT helps people notice difficult feelings and commit to actions that match their values, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation issues.

She also integrates client-centered principles, which means sessions begin with listening and building a collaborative relationship. The therapist will work with each person to decide which approach or combination fits best based on goals, preferences, and life circumstances. That choice is made together and can change as progress is made.

Using online formats makes scheduling easier for busy families and working people. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions offer a simpler audio option, and live chat or text-based messaging supports shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These formats offer flexibility so therapy can fit into daily life and parenting routines while maintaining a consistent therapeutic process.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

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.
