About Jeana
Jeana De Lay is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 17 years of experience. She helps people who are coping with anger, grief, anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship strain.

She uses a mix of longer and shorter term therapeutic work aimed at helping people find their voice and move forward. Sessions often include practical steps and tasks to do between meetings.
Background and approach
Jeana describes coaching as a goal-oriented bridge that helps people connect present difficulties to future goals. Jeana teaches parenting skills that focus on clear communication, consistent discipline, and loving interaction across different child stages. These are presented in simple, usable strategies rather than abstract theory.
She tailors suggestions to each client’s situation. In therapy she helps clients set clear goals, then builds a specific plan to reach them. Plans may include homework assignments to practice new skills and test changes in real life.
The aim is better communication, healthier behaviors, and more steady emotional balance. Her style is warm and direct. She aims to make people feel comfortable and understood while pushing toward real change.
People who want practical steps alongside reflective conversation tend to find her approach helpful.

How therapeutic approaches translate online
Jeana draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that combine practical skill-building with reflective work. One common method focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful behavior patterns through small, measurable steps; this helps with anger, stress, and relationship habits. Another approach centers on processing past hurts and trauma in a paced way, helping people reduce the hold of old events and move toward clearer goals.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and daily demands, then adapt techniques to fit those needs. Clients and the therapist decide together whether coaching-style goal work, behavioral exercises, or deeper trauma processing is the best path forward.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and deeper interaction. Phone sessions are useful when video is not practical or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and try different formats to see what helps most.
