About Jeanie

Jeanie Robertson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, grief, and big life changes. She draws on a long career to support people working through relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, eating and body image worries, career decisions, and issues like compassion fatigue and ADHD. Jeanie also welcomes people across sexual orientations and gender identities.

She practices in a down-to-earth, person-centered way. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual and on practical steps they can try between meetings. Creative tools such as art, writing, music, humor, and reading may be used when they seem helpful.

Her background includes nearly four decades of counseling and consultation. For more than ten years she offered counseling and support to medical students, physicians, and other high-stress healthcare professionals. That experience influences her approach to stress, burnout, and first responder or caregiver strain.

Jeanie often blends short-term, goal-focused work with deeper exploration of patterns that keep people stuck. She uses approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Internal Family Systems to look at thoughts, behaviors, and internal parts. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy guide clear steps forward when people want change.

Her style is warm and collaborative. She helps people notice options, try new strategies, and build on what already works. To begin, she asks a few practical questions and tailors the plan to each person’s needs.

How her methods translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting the person's own pace of change. It helps when someone needs a respectful space to sort feelings and make choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and offers concrete exercises to shift unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety, anger, or depression. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and turn ambivalence into action, often useful for lifestyle shifts and coaching goals.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust plans as progress is made. The aim is to find approaches that feel useful and realistic in everyday life.

If you are considering online work, confirm the available session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, allow a shorter check-in when that suits your day, and let people join from quieter surroundings when that helps concentration. Licensed professionals use these methods to adapt exercises, worksheets, and creative activities to remote meetings so therapy can be practical and goal oriented even when not in person.
