About Jeannie

Jeannie Craig is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and depression while supporting them through life changes. Jeannie aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment, and she offers a steady presence during difficult transitions.

Her approach blends practical techniques with a warm, client-centered stance. Jeannie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors that get in the way of better sleep, mood, or daily functioning. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation and Mindfulness Therapy practices to reduce stress and increase moment-to-moment awareness.

Jeannie brings experience working with a range of concerns, including relationship and intimacy issues, grief, addictions, body image, and co-morbid conditions like ADHD and bipolar disorder. She also addresses parenting stress, communication problems, and recovery from infidelity or separation. Clients often work on practical steps they can use between sessions.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Jeannie helps people set clear goals, try small experiments, and track changes over time. She emphasizes skills that support better sleep and rest as part of overall wellbeing when that is a concern.

To begin, clients complete a short intake and schedule sessions according to availability. Jeannie supports work on immediate coping skills and longer-term change, tailoring methods to each person’s needs and pace.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s perspective first. It involves listening closely and shaping sessions around what matters most to the client, which can help when sorting out sleep routines, stress, or relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; it is often used to improve sleep habits, reduce anxiety, and change patterns that interfere with daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jeannie will work with each person to decide which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning can include trying CBT exercises, practicing DBT skills, or using mindfulness techniques and then checking what helps most.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats offered before booking. Different formats suit different routines - shorter check-ins can fit a lunch break, audio-only sessions can use less bandwidth, and video visits let a therapist observe facial expression and body language. Online work can make it easier to stick with skills practice between sessions and to fit therapy into a busy life, while the therapist and client adapt logistics together.
