About Jeanne
Jeanne Brown is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who aims to make therapy understandable and practical for people feeling overwhelmed. She writes and talks in a direct, warm way and focuses on helping clients manage stress, anxiety, mood shifts, substance concerns, and the everyday strain of parenting and relationships.
She brings ten years of licensed counseling experience and a longer history working in mental health settings in New York and Virginia.
Background and approach
Jeanne holds a Master’s degree in Human Services with a specialization in Mental Health Counseling and lists credentials as LMHC and LPC. Her background includes work in outpatient and community programs and roles that involved individual and group support. Jeanne uses a person-centered style that keeps the client’s perspective central.
With adults she leans toward non-directive talk therapy that encourages people to identify their own solutions while she offers empathy and practical feedback. With children and adolescents she adapts that same attitude into Play Therapy principles, using play to help young people communicate and process difficult experiences.
Her practice addresses a range of concerns including addictions, trauma and abuse, bipolar mood issues, ADHD, depression, anger, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. She aims to create straightforward goals and clear next steps rather than complicated plans. Sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled according to therapist availability. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time.
How Jeanne’s Approaches Work Online
Jeanne draws on person-centered therapy and play-based work to meet different needs. Person-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and collaboration so adults can name their goals and discover solutions with the therapist's support. This approach suits anxiety, depression, and life changes where insight and steady guidance help people move forward.Play Therapy techniques are used with children and adolescents, using toys and activities as a way to communicate feelings and try out coping strategies. That method helps young people process trauma, behavior challenges, and emotional upset without relying only on words.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jeanne will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust methods over time. The process is collaborative: clients and the therapist check progress together and change direction as needed.
Online sessions let people fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to send updates, ask quick questions, or check in between fuller sessions. These options increase flexibility and help therapy continue even when schedules are tight.
