About Jolene

Dr. Jolene Des Roches is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Texas with 15 years of experience. She works with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, LGBT-related matters, ADHD, and young adult transitions.

She focuses on concrete problems young adults often face: feeling behind after college, starting first jobs, money pressure, shifting relationships, and questions about identity. Sessions aim to clarify what feels most urgent and develop practical steps to manage day-to-day demands. Conversations are direct and focused on what helps someone function better now.

Her background emphasizes several evidence-informed methods that match specific goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses thought patterns that increase anxiety or low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for regulating intense emotions and improving relationships. EMDR is used for people processing traumatic memories.

Dr. Des Roches also uses Client-Centered Therapy and the Gottman Method for relationship work. She supports people with a range of complex experiences, including adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, autism spectrum issues, chronic illness, kink and alternative sexual cultures, and blended family dynamics. Language of sessions is English.

Her practice notes that costs vary by location and that services use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person can lead the topics that matter most. It helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental place to sort thoughts and decide next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thought patterns and behavior choices that keep problems going. It is practical for anxiety, depression, and problem-solving around work or study routines. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving boundaries, and calming intense reactions in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration may mean trying a few techniques and adjusting what’s used over time.

The original profile does not list which online session formats are offered. Before booking, confirm current session options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins between commitments, and letting people choose quieter surroundings or lower-bandwidth options when needed.
