Individual Therapy

Psychotherapy consists of a clinical relationship between the client and therapist to explore and understand the underlying emotional experience, thinking patterns and outward behaviors for the purpose of preventing trouble, alleviating current distress and improving resilience. Jeannine’s approach is collaborative and respectful of the client’s personal dignity whilst empathizing with their situation.

Couple and Family Therapy

Jeannine’s approach is based on systems theory, which essentially means looking for interactional behaviors that are created by multiple people in the room and in light of boundaries between individuals, particularly the transaction that is created between the parent and child and couples learning to be a single unit as well as separate individuals.
