Jeanette Grissom

Jeanette Grissom is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Indiana with four decades of experience. She focuses on trauma-focused therapy alongside practical approaches to stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and addictions. Her style centers on overall health and wellness and on helping people build everyday coping skills.

She offers individual therapy built from each person's unique situation. Sessions use problem-solving and skill practice to address issues like panic, depression, grief, and substance use. Her work also covers communication problems, codependency, caregiver stress, and challenges related to prejudice or multicultural concerns.

Her approach mixes well-known behavioral methods with trauma-focused ideas. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Motivational Interviewing shape how she helps people make change. Treatment plans are created for the concerns a person brings to therapy.

Jeanette has a long history of providing individual therapy and group psycho-education in outpatient settings. She emphasizes self-efficacy so people can use skills outside the therapy room. Over the years she has worked with many who have experienced trauma and substance use issues.

She invites people who are ready to begin to use a short matching process and scheduling steps to get started. The aim is to help people design realistic goals and put into practice the tools they need to reach them.

How trauma-informed and skills-based work fits online

Trauma-focused therapy addresses how past traumatic events affect current thoughts, feelings, and behavior, often using methods that help process difficult memories and reduce their impact. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without being controlled by them and commit to actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions, teaching practical skills to change patterns that keep problems going.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their needs and goals. That process includes trying tools, checking what helps, and adjusting plans over time.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and offering options when camera use or bandwidth is a concern. Ask about specific session formats and scheduling when you begin so arrangements match your daily routine.
