About Jeanni

Jeanni Johnson-Green is a licensed clinical social worker who uses a collaborative, down-to-earth approach. She brings 15 years of experience to sessions and focuses on practical steps people can take to feel better at work and in life. She is warm, attentive, and encourages honest conversation without judgment.

She trained at Columbia University and holds LICSW and LCSW credentials. Jeanni has worked extensively in acute care settings, so she is familiar with high-stress situations and sudden life changes. That background informs how she helps people manage anxiety, depression, grief, mood swings, and stress tied to work or major transitions.

In sessions she mixes client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness. She also draws on emotionally-focused techniques and motivational interviewing to help people clarify goals and try new behaviors. The work is practical and focused on small, manageable changes over time.

Jeanni helps people who are dealing with relationship strain, intimacy concerns, communication problems, anger, low self-esteem, and issues around commitment. She also addresses multicultural concerns, prejudice and discrimination, women’s issues, workplace problems, and challenges faced by young adults.

People who start with her can expect a caring, pragmatic counselor who pays attention to context and everyday pressures. She asks questions, listens carefully, and co-designs a plan with each person. Those steps aim to make progress feel achievable in the middle of busy life.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can set their own goals; it helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort priorities and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) uses practical exercises and experiments to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and work-related stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name emotions and shifts patterns in close relationships, useful for intimacy and communication concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jeanni will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. She collaborates with each person to try approaches that fit their situation and adjusts the plan as needed.

Confirm session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to maintain continuity after a move or during schedule changes. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for you and your daily routine.
