Jeanne Jacobs, LPCC #7872
Cognitive Behavioral Therapist
For Jeanne, providing therapy is a culmination of her life’s varied work experience, which includes working for several years as an equity/diversity specialist in an educational cooperative. Jeanne highly values connection with others and the ways in which people come to understand and express themselves in relationship to their own life experiences.
She has 15 years of experience providing therapy to children, adolescents and adults. Her areas of specialty are grief and loss, depression, insomnia and postpartum issues. Jeanne primarily uses CBT, focusing on self-awareness, communication patterns and skill building.
Jeanne loves helping clients solve their problems. “It is my belief that every solution to a problem lies within the person who owns the problem. It is my work to assist others to bring that solution to awareness.”
Jeanne received her master’s degree from North Dakota State University and is Board Certified by the National Board for Certified Counselors.
In addition, Jeanne is certified in Love and Logic Parenting and the Prepare/Enrich program for couples. She is team certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and uses that approach to help clients engage in mindfulness, self-compassion and freedom from judgment toward self and others.
When not working, Jeanne likes to spend time with friends and family, and hiking and backpacking.
