Her practice takes a practical approach to symptoms like anger, eating and sleeping problems, and attention concerns such as ADHD.

Online approaches for guilt, shame, and trauma
Dr. Jennette uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address distressing emotions. One common method focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns that fuel guilt and shame. This involves noticing automatic thoughts, testing their accuracy, and trying more balanced ways of thinking to reduce emotional intensity.Another useful technique targets behaviors that keep problems going. This approach looks at avoidance, safety behaviors, or perfectionism and encourages small, practical experiments to test new responses. It can help with anxiety, anger, sleep, and relationship patterns that reinforce shame.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs and goals, and she adjusts the plan as they learn what helps. Clients are involved in choosing steps and homework that feel manageable.
If you prefer online sessions, confirm the specific session options before booking because the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people use audio-only or video options if that better suits concentration, bandwidth, or comfort - confirm what is offered when you schedule.
