About Jeanie
Jeanie Robertson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 39 years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, parenting questions, career worries, and LGBT-related issues. She also supports people dealing with life transitions, eating and body image concerns, anger, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Robertson uses a person-centered approach that focuses on the client's own goals and resources. Sessions often include practical problem-solving and short-term strategies. She may bring creative tools into sessions, such as art, writing, music, or reading, when these fit a person’s needs.
Her background includes more than a decade providing counseling and support to medical students, doctors, and other high-stress health professionals. That work shaped her ability to help people manage burnout, caregiver stress, and first responder issues. She also has experience addressing blended family situations, family-of-origin concerns, and divorce or separation.
In sessions she blends Client-Centered Therapy with techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Internal Family Systems. That mix aims to help people identify practical steps, shift unhelpful thoughts, and clarify values that guide change.
She welcomes people of different ages, races, cultures, spiritual beliefs, sexual orientations, and gender identities. Sessions are conducted in English and reflect nearly four decades of counseling, coaching, and training people to recognize possibilities and find workable solutions.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client shapes the work. It helps when someone wants to talk through values, make sense of feelings, and set their own goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and eating-related concerns.
Motivational Interviewing supports a person who feels unsure about change by exploring their reasons and readiness. It can be helpful for career shifts, lifestyle changes, and situations where someone wants to build motivation.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. That cooperation helps adjust strategies over time if something isn’t working.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow a shorter check-in when time is limited, and reduce travel time for people balancing school, early career demands, or caregiving. The focus is on choosing practical ways to make counseling part of everyday life.
