About Jeannette
Jeannette Horton is an LMHC who brings 14 years of experience in mental health work. She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, addictions, relationship and family strain, anger, career worries, and compassion fatigue. She also pays attention to needs that often come up with aging, chronic illness, caregiving, attachment and abandonment issues, body image, and kink-informed concerns.
Her background includes work in outpatient chemical dependency treatment, community mental health agencies, and long-term care settings. She has experience supporting veterans and has worked in situations that included deployment overseas. Those job roles shaped her practical approach to day-to-day challenges.
In sessions she aims to build safety and trust first. She uses clear, down-to-earth conversation and a straightforward sense of humor when appropriate. Clients can expect a calm, honest atmosphere where feelings and hard topics are named plainly.
Jeannette uses a mix of Mindfulness Therapy, client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral tools, existential questions, and motivational interviewing. That combination is used to help people notice patterns, try small changes, and clarify values when life gets confusing.
She asks people to take the first step by selecting the Start Therapy button, filling a short matching questionnaire, and scheduling according to therapist availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary with location and therapist availability.
How her approach and online work fit together
Jeannette uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice their thoughts and bodily signals without judgment, which can reduce reactivity and ease anxiety and stress. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening, empathy, and creating a trusting relationship so people can speak openly about what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another tool she draws on to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical behavior changes that can improve mood and daily functioning.
Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Jeannette will work with each person to see which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as work progresses to keep it practical and relevant.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so appointments are simpler to keep. Many people find that using mindfulness exercises, CBT worksheets, and values-focused conversations translates well to a remote setting, and the therapist will help tailor session length and style to everyday life and responsibilities.
These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
