About Jeanne
Her work centers on the whole person, including identity, history, community, and culture. She addresses underlying causes of distress and pays attention to systemic factors that affect mental health. Her approach mixes practical skills and deeper work so people can manage symptoms and understand what led to them.
Dr. Assinthe uses a blend of methods drawn from acceptance and commitment work, attachment-focused ideas, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior strategies. Sessions often include talking through current struggles, learning coping tools, and exploring relationships and patterns that matter to daily life.
She brings experience beyond one-on-one therapy, including program development, supervision of clinicians, training, and organizational consulting. That background informs her clinical work and shapes how she helps people set realistic goals and try new ways of coping.
To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. Dr. Assinthe aims to work collaboratively, helping people use their strengths and cultural resources to move toward the changes they want.

Approaches that guide online work
Dr. Assinthe uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice what matters to them and take small steps in that direction. ACT often helps when stress, anxiety, or low motivation get in the way of daily life.She also draws on attachment-based perspectives to look at how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior. That work can be useful for relationship strain, parenting questions, and recurring patterns that leave people feeling stuck.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative planning helps people test what works without committing to a single path up front.

Many people choose online work because it can fit into busy schedules, allow shorter check-in visits, or avoid travel time.
