Jonnie MiddletonLotte, LPC

Jonnie MiddletonLotte is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of clinical experience. She focuses on guiding people through depression, anxiety, trauma recovery, and major life transitions. Her work aims to help clients find practical ways to cope and move forward.

She uses approaches that encourage present-moment contact with values and behavior change. Sessions often include learning new coping skills for stress and mood symptoms. Jonnie pays attention to how past experiences shape current reactions and helps people build steady routines that support daily functioning.

Her practice includes care for people facing grief, addiction, and long-term mood disorders such as bipolar and disruptive mood dysregulation. She has worked extensively with military veterans and survivors of sexual assault, bringing focused support for trauma recovery and post-traumatic stress. This background informs her work with first responder issues and veteran and armed forces concerns.

Jonnie’s style is collaborative and practical. She listens for what matters most to each person and helps set small, manageable goals. Therapy sessions balance emotional processing with concrete strategy-building so people can notice change between visits.

Over the years she has combined several evidence-based methods to match the needs of the person in front of her. People who come to her for help with guilt, shame, obsessions, chronic pain, or life purpose leave with clearer steps to try at home.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take steps that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress when someone wants to build a more meaningful daily routine. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and changing behaviors that keep problems going, which can help with mood disorders, obsessive thoughts, and anxiety. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) supports people who have experienced traumatic events by helping process distressing memories so they feel less disruptive over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they try methods that fit the person’s needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm the session options before booking, since the biography does not list specific online formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow quieter check-ins that are less demanding than longer in-person visits. Licensed professionals can use these approaches in remote sessions to teach skills, process feelings, and set practical tasks to do between meetings.
