About Jeanne

Dr. Jeanne Assinthe welcomes people who are worried about stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, adoption and foster care concerns, or the fallout from trauma. She is Dr. Jeanne Assinthe, a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and CSW with 15 years of clinical and leadership experience. Her tone is direct and practical, aimed at helping visitors feel understood and steady in the first conversation.

Her work focuses on healing that fits each person's life and culture. She pays attention to a person's identity, history, and community when talking about trauma and recovery. She looks beyond symptoms to address root causes like systemic harms and intergenerational pain when relevant to a client’s story.

In practice she blends relationship-based listening with actionable skills. She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to help people manage difficult feelings and change patterns that cause pain. Sessions may include values clarification, emotion regulation skills, and communication practice.

Dr. Assinthe also brings organizational experience into clinical work. She has led programs and training initiatives that center cultural healing and community strengths. That background informs how she supports people navigating caregiving stress, grief, career changes, and long-term recovery.

Her style is collaborative and respectful. She aims to help people build practical routines, stronger relationships, and clearer goals so they can move forward with more confidence.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take steps toward those values even when feelings are intense; it is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments to reduce depression and worry. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to how early relationships affect current bonds and communication, helping people change how they relate to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean combining elements from different approaches and adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Specific online session options are not listed here, so confirm the current formats before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules require them. It can also let people practice communication or coping skills in real-time within everyday routines. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused techniques to remote sessions to keep the work practical and focused on real-life change.
