Dr. Jeanne Assinthe

Dr. Jeanne Assinthe greets new clients with clear, practical care. She is Dr. Jeanne Assinthe, a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and CSW with 15 years of experience. She focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, parenting strain, relationship challenges, and coping with life changes.

Her sessions aim to honor each person's history and identity. She emphasizes listening, helping people name the problem, and creating simple steps to move forward. She attends to how trauma, culture, and systems shape someone's experience rather than only treating symptoms.

Jeanne draws from several therapeutic methods to match a person's needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small action. She uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavior approaches for skills to manage symptoms and emotions.

Much of her work has focused on making care more equitable and culturally responsive. She has led programs that blend cultural practices with mental health support and has developed training and supervision for other clinicians. Her background includes program development, organizational consulting, and published work in the field.

Sessions are offered in English and Haitian Creole. International clients are accepted. To begin, a reader should use the site's Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire before scheduling according to therapist availability.

How therapy approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and making changes when life feels overwhelming. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and can help with trust, communication, and repeated relationship struggles. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting a person to find their own solutions rather than giving directives.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful. Together they clarify goals, try approaches in session, and adjust based on what actually helps in day-to-day life.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. It also lets people join from other regions, which supports international clients. Practical benefits include being able to schedule around work, use a quieter space, or choose sessions that match how much time a person has available.
