Compassionate, evidence-informed counseling for recovery

About Jeanne

Jeanne Tilseth is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 15 years of clinical experience who integrates evidence-based interventions to support people coping with trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression, and related concerns.

Background and approach

She blends client-centered care with structured techniques to address symptoms and promote overall wellness across emotional, mental, social, physical, and spiritual dimensions. Jeanne emphasizes a collaborative relationship that helps clients identify practical tools and long-term growth strategies.

Her work commonly focuses on stress, self-esteem, panic and post-traumatic stress, dissociation, and substance-related issues such as drug and alcohol addiction. She also addresses complex topics including domestic violence, sexual assault and abuse, family of origin issues, guilt and shame, forgiveness, emptiness, and women’s issues.

Jeanne draws on modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to tailor treatment to each person’s needs.

Based in Illinois, Jeanne combines clinical skill with a focus on recovery and personal development, guiding clients through healing while teaching coping skills and wellness practices that apply across the lifespan.

Online Approaches for Trauma and Emotional Regulation

Jeanne commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, panic, and depression, which can be useful for stress management and mood concerns. EMDR is a structured approach that helps process traumatic memories and related distress, often used for post-traumatic stress and other trauma-related symptoms.

Selecting the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jeanne works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they explore what feels most helpful, adapting techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with Jeanne is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide greater flexibility and accessibility. These remote options allow clients to engage in CBT skill-building, trauma processing, or emotion-regulation work from locations that suit their schedules while maintaining continuity of care with licensed professionals.
