About MJ
Dr. "MJ" Mignon Jambon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 20 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, depression, and related concerns commonly faced by young adults and others navigating life changes.
She aims for clear, punctual sessions and practical skill-building alongside listening. She does not rush endings or cut sessions short. When someone comes in feeling stalled or discouraged, she offers short-term strategies to ease intense feelings while also working toward longer term goals.
Her background includes roles as a clinician and a university professor. That experience informs a structured, skills-based style that draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas alongside motivational interviewing and attachment themes. Mindfulness and dialectical techniques are woven in when they help a person manage emotion and behavior.
In sessions she and the client work together to define current problems, set reachable goals, and practice skills that help day-to-day functioning. She values cultural and spiritual differences and discusses spirituality only if the client wants that element included.
People who reach out often want help with relationships, parenting stress, substance use, grief, career or identity shifts, and fatigue from caregiving or first-responder work. She encourages practical, skill-focused work so clients have tools between meetings.
To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session so you can see if her approach fits your needs.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based ideas focus on patterns in relationships and how early bonds affect current trust and closeness. In therapy this can look like mapping patterns and practicing different responses to improve connections and reduce chronic worry about abandonment.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions to find practical ways to change unhelpful patterns. It’s useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress with concrete tools and homework practice.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides skills for regulating intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Brief mindfulness and distress-tolerance strategies can be used between sessions to reduce overwhelm.
Finding the best-fit approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust as progress is tracked.
Confirm the current session formats before booking since they are not specified in the profile. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around school, work, or caregiving. It can allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, and let people practice skills in their usual routines. Licensed professionals can guide how to use techniques between meetings so therapy fits into everyday life.
