She is awesome understanding and very knowledgeable

Jean is by far the best therapist I have had as an adult. As someone who has been in therapy my whole life, I cannot recommend her enough. I am very sensitive to attentiveness & empathy in my sessions and Jean strongly accomplishes this. She never disappoints. I just feel like I hit the jackpot!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I think Jean really makes an effort to understand your concerns, validate them, and help you come up with solutions. I've only ever talked to her on the phone, yet I feel like she supports me better than a lot people I spend time with on a day to day basis. You can tell she really cares about the things you're struggling with, and wants to help you get through / change them. I love talking to her, and I love hearing her input on what I have to say.

We are still early on in this endeavor, but thus far Jean has been a touchstone of sorts. I log in and out of Betterhelp throughout the day, leaving my thoughts about various issues, and she always responds with kindness and understanding, and recently some guidance on how to begin to process, understand or deal with things I am referring to. When on the phone, she seems genuinely present and empathetic to my situations. Strongly recommend her.
