About Jeanette
Jeanette Fischer is a LICSW based in Washington who supports adults facing a wide range of life stressors including anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and ADHD.
Background and approach
She frames therapy around clients' strengths and practical steps, helping people move through difficult transitions such as job loss, relationship endings, or other painful life changes. Her background includes work with both justice-impacted and non-justice-impacted individuals, and she brings eight years of clinical experience to her practice.
Jeanette uses a person-centered, strengths-based orientation with a strong emphasis on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to create solution-focused plans. She values a relaxed, down-to-earth therapeutic presence and often incorporates mindfulness, humor, and gratitude practices to help clients build resilience.
Clients can expect a collaborative process in which they are treated as the expert of their own story and guided toward concrete goals. Appointments are primarily scheduled on Sundays, with additional availability on Saturdays and weekday evenings.
She offers multiple session formats to fit varying needs and encourages those taking the first step toward care to move forward with a brief matching process and scheduling based on availability.
Therapeutic approaches and online options
Jeanette commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and impulsivity. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support people in clarifying values and building meaningful action despite difficult thoughts or feelings. These methods are presented in straightforward, skill-based ways that target coping, emotional regulation, and practical problem solving.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to determine which modalities and strategies feel most useful given their goals, preferences, and current life circumstances, adjusting the plan over time based on progress and feedback.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited local options. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care and practice skills between sessions while fitting therapy into weekends, evenings, or other convenient times.
