We at Committed 2 Me Counseling Center, LLC (C2MeCC, LLC) Love, LoVE, LOVE what we do, however, the therapy journey can be an emotionally painful one. You will be sharing information with this therapist that you would not share with a best friend. This process takes time, effort, trust and not to mention money. You should feel comfortable about the therapy process and the therapist. C2MECC, LLC suggest to anyone seeking therapy to “try on” a therapist like you would a pair of new shoes. If it is a good fit, you know it. If it is not, well, you know that too.

I am currently accepting clients who are interested in short-term psychotherapy with a specific focus in insomnia treatment, or in psychedelic harm reduction and integration. While I have extensive experience as a generalist providing long-term therapy from a client-centered, compassion-focused lens, at this time I am not able to accept clients seeking long-term therapy. If you are looking for specialized support for insomnia (CBT-I) or for your process of psychedelic exploration, please reach out so we can discuss how we might work together.

Are you seeking a deeper sense of ease, self-trust, and connection? You may look like you're managing well, yet inside feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or not quite “enough.” Maybe you long for closeness but find it hard to let others in, or you stay busy to avoid feelings that seem too much. In our work together, we’ll slow down and listen deeply—to the patterns that have shaped you, the protective strategies that once served you, and the emotions that have gone underground. Rooted in AEDP and trauma-informed care, I offer a space for healing through connection.

I go by Jeannette. I am a Professional Counselor Associate working with Compassionate Comfort Counseling. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults to help them understand their past and present and develop resiliency to face future adversity. I have interests in working with clients seeking healing from trauma, as well as searching for identity or seeking information about their own or family members' neurodivergence. One thing all my past clients have had in common is a wish to develop coping skills and to learn to solve their problems. It's a funny goal to have-to help a client no longer need therapy!

My hope and aim is that the individuals I meet with feel seen, heard, cared for, and understood. I believe that when this happens, it is powerful and transformative. One of the greatest privileges of my work is to walk alongside individuals as they seek to better understand themselves and meet their goals. This might be during some of their darkest seasons of life, after a big life event, or even just during a time they feel ready to explore some changes. Wherever you are at and with whatever you bring, I strive to provide a space for hope, understanding, growth, and healing wherever you find yourself in life.

Living in a society that is both sexually repressed and obsessed with sex is confusing at the best of times. Overwhelmingly we weren’t offered the correct information about our natural urges or bodies, and we are sometimes even shamed for asking. This can often result in low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, guilt, shame, and isolation. I can help you navigate in improving your courage, mastery, and gaining healthier boundaries (that you are worthy of!) in order to be your most genuine self. We will work together at your pace in order to identify strengths and barriers and to gain confidence in making life choices and transitions.

I help teenagers and young adults find confidence, resilience and hope. Many teenagers and young adults struggle with anxiety and do not know how to cope when things get tough. If you are a parent of a struggling teen or young adult, you may feel stuck and like your child is out of reach. You want your teenager to communicate their needs, cope with hard things, and get along with others. Your teen probably just wants to feel “normal” and able to do whatever is important to them.

I believe that every person has the ability to heal and lead satisfying and fulfilling lives. Everyone does the best with what they have and when life presents significant challenges our reactions and behaviors often make sense in context. Problems do not exist within one person but are the result of a person’s family or relational systems, circular patterns, external systems, and learned behaviors that once had a functional purpose. I consider health to be the culmination of mental, physical, spiritual, and relational states, and I will work from this inclusive and holistic perspective.
