About Jeanette
Jeanette Trotter is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Illinois with 23 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship struggles, and life changes. Her style is warm and respectful, and she aims to make starting therapy less overwhelming.
Jeanette uses straightforward, collaborative conversations to understand what matters most to each person. Sessions are shaped around practical steps and real-life goals rather than jargon.
Background and approach
She listens for strengths and patterns, then helps clients try small changes they can notice quickly. Her work draws on approaches such as client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and the Gottman Method. That mix lets her address mood and anxiety symptoms, improve everyday coping, and focus on communication problems in relationships.
She adapts techniques to fit each person’s needs and pace. Jeanette also helps people cope with panic attacks, social anxiety, workplace stress, post-traumatic stress, questions of life purpose, and issues around forgiveness. She combines skills practice with discussions about values and priorities so progress feels practical and meaningful.
She invites people to take the first step and recognizes that reaching out takes courage. New clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling sessions that fit their life.

Online support
Using proven approaches in online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. It emphasizes empathy and respect, and helps people find their own answers as they work through stress, sadness, or relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful thinking and test new ways of responding to anxiety, panic, or low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps match methods to personal needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues for relationship and communication work. Phone sessions can be a better fit when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging support brief check-ins, skill building, and ongoing practice between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep momentum between appointments.
