More About Jean…


“My counseling career began 42 years ago, but all of my life experiences have contributed to the woman I have become as well as the counselor. I have participated in an undergraduate exchange program with traditionally Black colleges. I was a high school history teacher in a white working class community. I became a residence hall counselor at a large urban university, and became counseling psychologist at a small liberal arts college. To quote Bob Dylan,  he or she who is not busy growing is dying.


I am committed to exposing myself to new approaches to doing therapy and in some cases I choose more than mere exposure. Examples of those include Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, Mindfulness Meditation, Internal Family Systems, and applications of neuroscience to counseling outcomes.”
