About Jeanie
Jeanie Garrell is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee. She has eight years of experience helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, and problems in close relationships. She also supports people coping with trauma and abuse, parenting strains, and struggles with self-esteem and confidence.
Jeanie focuses on straightforward conversations and practical steps. She listens without judgment and adjusts each plan to match what a person needs. Sessions aim to build coping skills, reduce overwhelming feelings, and improve day-to-day functioning.
Background and approach
Her work includes attention to communication problems, control issues, and the emotional fallout from divorce and separation. She also helps people work through guilt, shame, forgiveness, and money-related stress. The approach is task-focused when needed and reflective when that helps people understand patterns.
Jeanie believes small changes add up. She helps set manageable goals and suggests exercises someone can try between sessions. She emphasizes respect and sensitivity while helping people practice new ways of responding to stress and anxiety.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and Jeanie acknowledges that courage. She tailors conversations and plans to each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. That makes it easier to track progress and adjust as needs change.
Evidence-based methods and online therapy choices
Jeanie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and understanding patterns. One common approach she uses helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, then teaches skills to manage anxiety and stress more effectively. Another approach emphasizes building stronger communication skills and problem-solving strategies for relationship and parenting concerns. These methods aim to create clear steps you can try between sessions to see real shifts.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to figure out which method fits best based on their goals and preferences. Together they set priorities, try strategies, and adjust the plan as progress is made so therapy stays relevant and useful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more interaction is helpful. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to share thoughts in writing and fit support around busy days. These formats help people access consistent care from Tennessee without needing to travel.
