About Jeannette

Jeannette Sedor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 17 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions with a respectful and compassionate approach. Jeannette focuses on building a practical plan that fits each person she meets.

She uses a mix of methods to match what feels most useful in the moment. Sessions are shaped around what a person needs most, whether that is sorting out relationship concerns, coping with grief, or rebuilding confidence. She pays attention to patterns that come from early attachments and current thinking styles that can keep problems stuck.

Clients can expect straightforward conversations and concrete steps to try between meetings. Jeannette listens for what matters to each person and adjusts the plan as progress happens or new problems emerge. She also offers ways to work with anger, trauma, chronic illness, and career stress.

Her background includes long-term clinical work across a range of emotional and life challenges. That experience informs how she helps people navigate major changes, manage mood disorders, and recover after painful events. Jeannette aims to make therapy a useful part of everyday life.

To start, she asks questions about current struggles, goals, and what has helped before. From there she and the client set priorities and try practical strategies that can be measured and refined over time.

How her approaches fit into online work

Jeannette uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand why they react certain ways in close relationships and provides ways to try new interactions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood regulation because it gives clear tools to practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, past help that worked, and preferences. Together they choose methods to try, check what helps, and adjust the plan over time.

Confirm the available session options before booking because the biography does not list specific online formats. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed. Therapists can also offer exercises, thought records, and mindfulness practices to use between meetings so work continues outside the session.
