About Jeanette

Jeanette Grissom is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Indiana with four decades of experience. She focuses on practical support to help people manage stress, anger, anxiety, addiction, and mood concerns. Jeanette offers straightforward therapy that aims to build skills people can use day to day.

Her approach centers on evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, emotion-focused work, and trauma-informed care. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy when helpful.

Background and approach

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is also part of her toolkit for trauma-related concerns. Jeanette blends individual therapy and group psycho-education to match what each person needs. She designs individualized plans that respond to the problems a person brings into sessions.

That can mean skills for coping with panic, support for substance or process addictions, or help sorting through family of origin and communication problems. She emphasizes whole-person health and practical goals. Sessions often focus on building coping strategies, improving communication, and strengthening motivation for change.

Jeanette also addresses caregiver stress, codependency, grief, and multicultural or prejudice-related concerns. People who choose her work with someone who expects effort and follow-through. She encourages steps that increase self-efficacy and heal earlier wounds.

If someone is ready to begin, she guides the process from an initial matching and scheduling step onward.

How Jeanette’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to tolerate difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, anger, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression, panic, and mood disorders. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with intense anger and self-destructive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they will review what’s helping, adjust techniques, and try different tools when needed so the plan fits the person’s day-to-day life.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful when visual cues and real-time interaction help learning. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing written support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule while working on skills and healing.
