About Jean
She blends several methods rather than relying on one fixed approach. Sessions often focus on building coping skills, managing anxiety or depression, and addressing relationship tensions. When trauma or loss is part of the picture, she uses methods that help people process painful memories and reconnect with daily life.
Jean brings about 20 years of clinical experience across settings such as private practice, corrections, schools, hospitals, and mental health centers. That background informs how she tailors sessions to fit work schedules, caregiving demands, or health challenges like chronic pain or aging-related concerns. She also supports people dealing with addiction, grief, and caregiver stress.
Her listed credential is LMHC, which is stated as Florida LMHC. She speaks English and Portuguese and works with adults who need focused clinical support. She does not take international clients at this time.

How therapy methods translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting controlled by them and reconnect with what matters most. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to change them; it is useful for stress, mood, and some relationship concerns. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, focuses on reducing the emotional charge of traumatic memories so daily functioning improves; it is often used for trauma and abuse-related issues.Deciding which approach to use is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before. Together they try methods, check progress, and adjust the plan so sessions fit the person’s needs and pace.
Online work can help people fit therapy into busy lives. It can make scheduling around work or caregiving easier, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Session format options should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified here. The therapist draws on her experience to recommend ways of working that match a person’s routine and challenges.
