About Jeannette
Jeannette Sedor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia with 17 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She also supports those dealing with low self-esteem, motivation challenges, and major life transitions. Her work includes attention to trauma, grief, anger, and issues linked to career or financial strain.
She uses a personalized approach that starts by listening. Sessions are shaped around each person's needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Jeannette aims to be respectful and compassionate while helping clients name what’s most important to them.
Her clinical work draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centered principles to strengthen relationships and emotional understanding. She also uses cognitive behavioral strategies to address patterns of thinking and mindfulness techniques to build moment-to-moment coping skills. Those methods are adapted to the problem at hand, whether it’s panic, mood shifts, trauma, or chronic illness.
Jeannette has supported people with concerns related to first responder and veteran experiences, hospice and end-of-life issues, and the effects of traumatic brain injury. She also addresses men’s issues and women’s issues in individual therapy. Her background includes helping people navigate divorce, abandonment, and recovery after sexual assault.
She encourages practical steps between sessions, such as brief exercises to challenge unhelpful thoughts and simple mindfulness practices. To begin, she asks people to describe their main concern so sessions can focus on achievable changes and clearer goals.
How her approaches translate to online care
Jeannette blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral tools and mindfulness so people can learn new habits and feel steadier day to day. Client-centered work means sessions focus on the person’s priorities and pace, helping them name goals and feel heard. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at unhelpful thinking patterns and teach simple exercises to change reactions. Mindfulness practices train attention to reduce overwhelm and improve coping for stress, panic, and mood concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss options and decide together which methods to try first, then adjust based on how things are going. That collaborative process helps match techniques to goals such as reducing anxiety, managing anger, or navigating a major life change.
If you plan to try online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness exercises or thought-record work between meetings to keep progress moving forward.
