About Jeanie
Jeanie Robertson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Georgia who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, and life transitions. She draws on long experience to help people notice options they might not have seen and to move toward workable steps. Her approach is warm and practical, with an emphasis on what the person wants to change.
She has worked in counseling, coaching, and training for nearly four decades. Much of her background includes supporting people with depression, parenting challenges, caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, and career concerns. She has also provided counseling for medical students, doctors, and other high-stress healthcare professionals for more than ten years.
Jeanie uses a person-centered style that puts the client's voice front and center. She also blends solution-focused techniques and cognitive behavioral ideas to help people try small changes and measure what works. Motivational interviewing and parts work approaches are used when helpful to uncover motivation and internal barriers.
In sessions she may introduce creative tools like writing, art, music, or humor to help people discover options and practice new habits. The style is collaborative and paced to the client’s goals rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Jeanie welcomes people of varied ages, cultures, spiritual beliefs, sexual orientations, and gender identities.
She asks curious questions and offers concrete strategies for coping and decision making. People who come with codependency concerns, body image struggles, eating issues, or challenges around family of origin often find practical steps to try between sessions.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead while offering empathy and support; it helps when someone needs to be heard and to make their own choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviors, then breaks problems into small steps and practice tasks to reduce anxiety or manage mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify what really matters to them and build motivation to try changes, which is useful for goals like changing habits or addressing codependency.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. Sessions often mix styles so work can be practical and tailored rather than rigidly following a single method.
Confirm current session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific online or in-person options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce time spent traveling, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use tools like worksheets, writing exercises, and audio or music prompts during work between sessions.
