About Jeanette

Jeanette Grissom is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in Indiana who brings 40 years of professional experience to her outpatient practice.

Background and approach

She blends evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to support people coping with stress, anxiety, mood disorders, addictions, trauma, and ADHD. Her work emphasizes overall health and wellness while tailoring interventions to each person’s unique situation.

Grissom builds individualized treatment plans that draw on both individual therapy and group psycho-education techniques she has used throughout her career. Her style is solution-oriented and motivational, aiming to strengthen self-efficacy and practical coping skills.

She has particular experience helping those affected by trauma, process and substance addictions, grief, relationship issues, and a wide range of mood and behavioral concerns. Clients can expect a collaborative therapist who values learning and adaptation, using a variety of therapeutic tools to address presenting needs.

Grissom encourages people ready to make changes to take the first step toward improved functioning and well-being.

Integrating evidence-based therapies into online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take committed action toward a meaningful life while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings, which can support work on anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replacing them with practical skills for mood and anxiety management, problem-solving, and relapse prevention for addictions. EMDR is a trauma-focused approach that uses guided processing to help reduce distress linked to past traumatic memories and can be useful for people who have lingering symptoms from trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and presenting concerns. Treatment plans are adjusted over time as needs evolve to ensure interventions remain relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility by allowing work to continue through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule or to access care from different locations within Indiana. These formats support ongoing skill-building, check-ins, and therapy work between sessions, helping people maintain continuity of care and adapt treatment to their daily lives.
