I have helped individuals with a wide range of problems, including chronic depression or anxiety, relationship difficulties, history of trauma and loss, purposelessness, and that feeling of "overwhelm" life can bring.
If you struggle with anxiety, depression, or emotional stress that seems insumountable, it's likely you engage in self-criticism, ruminate often, and tend to avoid difficult feelings and tasks. I provide therapy that combines a warm, accepting style with therapeutic expertise. I am certified in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and integrate other approaches to match a client's needs. I help clients change self-defeating thinking and behavior, learn to manage difficult emotions, and deal more effectively with obstacles to becoming their best selves.

I treat a variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma/grief, relationship issues, and mild-to-moderate eating concerns.
As humans, we tend to avoid our more difficult and complex emotions in hopes that they will disappear. However, it is more often the case that the feelings we turn inward find their way out, and sometimes in a less-than-ideal way. Therapy is a unique space to explore the parts of you that tend to stay hidden. It is a space to “look beneath the hood” to understand more fully who you are and "why" you are. With this newfound insight, we can explore ways for you to engage more fully in your life and relationships, dig into your sense of purpose, and reconnect with (or discover for the first time) feelings of stillness and joy.

I counsel adults who are going through difficult life transitions and/or feeling anxious and/or depressed.
Is a serious illness or disability in your life impacting you? Are you grieving the loss of a loved one? Do you feel lonely or lacking purpose? Are you no longer interested in the activities you once enjoyed? Are you feeling vulnerable as you age? Your emotions are normal reactions to the changes in your life and important aspects of your current challenges. I can help you explore them so that they no longer overwhelm you. By working with me to identify strategies to manage your feelings, you can adjust to these transitions and begin to feel better.

Creating change in your life can be difficult, but tremendously rewarding. As a licensed psychotherapist with a holistic perspective, I work with adults and couples to address problems with troubling issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma and grief. Concerns with sexuality, sexual identity, and relationships are areas where I am experienced. I have a particular interest in resolving inhibitions and insecurities that are barriers to creative expression and successful relationships. Artists, writers, performers, and others for whom creativity is an important aspect of their life, if not their career, are welcome.

CBT for handling anxiety and depression.
A lot of focus on people with anxiety and depression disorder. Mood swings or other emotional midsections that are causing some level of conflict in their family, social, educational or financial life. A majority of the people I work vary in what they know about themselves from just knowing somethings and wanting to fix it to others being forced by a friend, family member or just some stranger that passed along my name to someone. Range of symptoms from minor to discharges from high levels of care.

People often come to me because they recognize something is not working and they are willing to admit that it is no longer fruitful to simply try to figure it out on their own. They are open to self-reflection, new ideas for coping, self-care, and communication with others. People present with all kinds of issues: depression and anxiety, relational struggles, difficulty connecting to what they want and following through on goals, unresolved trauma from the past or present, the use of coping mechanisms that had been helpful, but no longer are, and challenges posed by various life-stage transitions. We all need support in hard times.

People often turn to psychotherapy when our usual ways of coping with the world become inadequate or counterproductive. We may feel overwhelmed by events, or experience a painful awareness that our lives are not what we want them to be. Sometimes life transitions, such as the loss of a loved one, birth of a child, divorce, job change, or retirement challenge our sense of self, our ties to others, and our understanding of what's important to us. We experience symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Jean is experienced in treating issues such as anger management, oppositional defiance disorder, anxiety, depression, sexual deviance, and many others through individual and family counseling.
Our experiences mold us in various ways. If I were to imagine a plant that captures what happens to many of us when faced with challenging and persistent experiences, the CACTUS comes to mind. Like the CACTUS, we develop tougher skin and spikes to protect ourselves from problematic situations. When not processed correctly, the development of these characteristics may detract attention from the other powerful properties we possess. For some, the CACTUS may be the least appealing plant. When given the time to learn about it, you discover that the CACTUS is extremely resilient, powerful, beautiful and filled with wonders.
