About Jeanne

Jeanne Brown is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship strain, and changes in mood. She works with adults, adolescents, parents, and children to address issues like depression, trauma, ADHD, and low self-esteem. Jeanne writes in a direct, warm way and aims to make therapy understandable and doable for busy families.

Jeanne brings a decade of counseling work in outpatient and community settings, and more than 30 years in related roles working with children and adults. She earned a Master’s degree in Human Services with a specialization in Mental Health Counseling from Capella University and completed certificates in compulsive and addictive behavior and in play therapy. Jeanne holds licensure in New York as an LMHC and in Virginia as an LPC.

Her style is largely person-centered and non-directive. With adults she focuses on helping clients identify their goals, recognize their strengths, and find their own solutions while offering support and empathy. With children and adolescents she adapts play therapy methods so young people can express themselves and work through difficulties in a way that feels natural to them.

Jeanne has experience supporting people with substance use concerns, anger and defiant behavior, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and trauma. She has worked individually, in groups, and with families in roles that included clinical and administrative responsibilities. Her approach emphasizes listening first and following the client’s lead.

She communicates in English and practices from New York. Before scheduling, confirm current session options so you know which formats are available.

How Jeanne Uses Evidence-Based Techniques Online

Jeanne uses person-centered counseling which focuses on listening, empathy, and helping clients find their own solutions. This approach helps with anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and everyday decision-making by centering the client’s goals and strengths.

She also uses play therapy methods with children and adolescents. Play therapy lets young people use play as a way to communicate feelings and work through difficult experiences without relying only on words. This approach can help with behavioral concerns, trauma responses, and emotional regulation in younger clients.

Finding the right method is a shared process. Jeanne will work with each person to decide which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what’s working and adjust the plan as therapy progresses so sessions stay practical and relevant.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how she offers care. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people keep therapy in the same routine across work, school, and home schedules, while still focusing on concrete steps and coping skills.
