About Jeffrey

Jeffrey Forget is a licensed mental health counselor with more than three decades of clinical experience working in New York.

Background and approach

He completed graduate training before becoming licensed and has practiced across inpatient and outpatient settings, bringing a long history of direct work with people facing mood, stress, and relationship challenges. His LMHC credential is held in both New York and Massachusetts as NY LMHC 006005, MA LMHC 1926.

Jeffrey approaches therapy as a collaborative process that begins with learning who each person is and what they want to achieve. He favors insight-oriented psychotherapeutic work while integrating evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral and mindfulness strategies to address issues like anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, bipolar mood concerns, and ADHD.

His broader focus includes attachment, communication, caregiver stress, and identity-related matters such as LGBT concerns. Clients can expect a practitioner who values the therapeutic relationship as the engine of change and who aims to tailor methods to individual needs.

He emphasizes practical coping tools alongside deeper exploration of history and patterns, and welcomes conversations about goals, life transitions, and improving day-to-day functioning.

Integrating Insight and Practical Tools in Online Care



Jeffrey uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and problematic habits. He also draws on attachment-based ideas to explore how early relationships shape current patterns and to support improvements in intimacy and communication. These approaches together allow for both symptom-focused work and deeper exploration of relational dynamics.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Jeffrey treats that as a collaborative process. He discusses options with clients, tailors interventions to their goals and preferences, and adjusts strategies as progress unfolds so that therapy fits individual needs rather than imposing a single method.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility for people balancing work and life commitments. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care across schedules and locations while enabling ongoing skill practice, check-ins, and therapeutic conversation in accessible ways.
