About Jeffrey
Jeffrey Forget is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with more than three decades of clinical experience. He trained at Antioch New England Graduate School and is licensed to practice in New York and Massachusetts. Jeffrey uses a calm, conversational style to help people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about next steps.
He meets each person where they are and shapes sessions around their needs. Jeffrey blends insight-focused work with practical tools.
Background and approach
Sessions can include looking at past patterns, testing new ways of thinking, and practicing mindful habits to ease day-to-day stress. Common concerns he addresses include anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, addictions, and bipolar mood concerns. He also helps with life transitions, attention challenges like ADHD, and problems tied to attachment or family of origin.
Jeffrey draws on attachment-based and client-centered ideas to build a trusting working relationship. He adds cognitive behavioral and mindfulness techniques when clients want concrete steps to change how they react to mood and stress. People who prefer a thoughtful, steady therapist may find his approach helpful.
He aims to listen closely, name patterns, and try simple experiments between sessions. Jeffrey invites prospective clients to consider a first conversation to see if his style fits their needs.
How Jeffrey’s Approaches Work Online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current bonds. It helps people who struggle with closeness, fear of abandonment, or repeated relationship patterns by tracking where those patterns began and testing new ways of relating. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist offers empathy and gentle reflection so people feel heard and can locate their own answers. Cognitive behavioral therapy, used alongside these approaches, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps with anxiety, depression, and compulsive behaviors by testing small behavior changes and new ways of thinking.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jeffrey will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and recommend a mix of methods. The choice is collaborative and can change over time as progress is made or new challenges appear.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful for a fuller conversation and visual cues, while phone calls are simpler when bandwidth or a quieter spot is easier. Live chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, quick coaching between sessions, or when writing feels more comfortable. These options help fit therapy into busy lives and different routines.
