Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Jeanna commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful action; it can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce distress and improve functioning; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jeanna works with each client to determine which methods align best with their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds so the work remains practical and relevant.
Online therapy with Jeanna is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access consistent care from Illinois and allow sessions to fit into busy routines while supporting ongoing skill practice and reflective work between meetings.
