About Jeannie
Jeannie Craig is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan. She focuses on common problems people bring to therapy, such as stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and coping with major life changes. Her approach centers on listening and helping each person find practical steps forward.
Jeannie blends client-centered care with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. She helps people notice patterns in thinking and behavior and then tries out new skills to change those patterns.
Background and approach
Mindfulness techniques and elements of the Gottman Method are also used when relevant to relationship concerns. Her work covers a wide range of issues including ADHD, addictions, grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping struggles, and self-esteem concerns. She also addresses complex and overlapping problems like codependency, impulsivity, guilt and shame, and struggles with life purpose or midlife changes.
Sessions are aimed at real-world change rather than only talking about problems. Jeannie has seven years of professional experience and frames sessions around clear goals and collaborative planning. She encourages small, doable steps and checks in on progress each session.
This straightforward style helps people build momentum and see what works for them. If someone wants practical support for relationship difficulties, communication problems, or recovery from addiction, Jeannie uses focused exercises and structured conversations to practice different responses. Her Michigan licensure and experience guide how she applies these methods in session.
Using skill-based approaches in online therapy
Jeannie uses client-centered work alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior therapy to help people cope with stress and emotional overwhelm. Client-centered work means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to set goals and priorities. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. Dialectical behavior therapy offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what feels useful. That collaboration helps shape sessions so the plan fits the person's needs and preferences rather than assuming one method will be best from the start.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make scheduling easier and let people choose what works for them. Video is useful for deeper conversation and practicing interactional skills, phone sessions can be a quick check-in or work around bandwidth limits, live chat allows quick exchanges during the day, and text messaging supports brief updates or ongoing coaching between meetings. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives while working on skills and goals.
