About Jeanne
Dr. Jeanne Assinthe offers practical, culturally aware support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She works with individuals who are coping with trauma, relationship strain, parenting pressures, career decisions, and the emotional fallout after disasters. Sessions are offered in English and Haitian Creole to meet a range of needs.
Jeanne draws on 15 years of clinical practice as a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and Clinical Social Worker (CSW). She emphasizes the whole person, including identity, history, and community context. Her work attends to how systemic forces and intergenerational pain shape personal difficulties.
In therapy she combines evidence-based methods with culturally informed practices. Clients are invited to name goals and use tools aimed at symptom relief and deeper healing. This may include skills for managing anxiety, learning new communication habits, or rebuilding after loss and disruption.
She also brings experience in program design, training, and supervision. That background informs a practical approach that balances immediate coping strategies with longer-term change. Jeanne has developed frameworks that weave community wisdom and liberation-oriented ideas into care.
People who choose her typically want a clinician who listens, respects their background, and helps translate values into concrete steps. Those exploring recovery after trauma, dealing with caregiving stress, or coping with life after a disaster may find her perspective helpful.
Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and take steps toward them, even when difficult feelings arise. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with major life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build healthier ways of relating and managing distress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the work together rather than following a fixed plan.
If you prefer online care, confirm the available session options before booking since formats were not specified in the profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also allow people to involve supports or access clinicians across regions, which is useful for those managing caregiving, work, or recovery after a disaster. Licensed professionals can help you decide which approach and session rhythm will work best with your life.
