About Jenelle
Jenelle Hoyt is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who uses an approach rooted in practical strategies and emotional work. She centers sessions on what matters most to each person and helps them build skills for everyday life. She brings six years of clinical experience and focuses on common struggles like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and low self-esteem.
She also helps people coping with trauma, grief, addiction, ADHD, and the strain that caregiving can bring.
Background and approach
In sessions she listens closely and helps people notice how their thinking affects their choices. That often means learning new ways to manage strong feelings and to respond differently in difficult moments. She supports goal setting and checks progress so goals stay realistic and useful.
Her work draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking, dialectical behavior tools, and a client-centered stance. She adapts these methods to match each person’s needs and preferences rather than following a single method for everyone. People who come to her can expect straightforward conversation that names strengths and challenges.
The tone is nonjudgmental and direct - with encouragement to try concrete steps between sessions. Her aim is to help people feel more able to handle life changes and to move toward the future they want.

Online support
Using proven approaches in online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting ruled by them and to act according to personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and situations where old patterns keep someone stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like low mood and anxiety. It’s practical and skills-based, useful for everyday problems and mood shifts. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help when people struggle with trust, closeness, or repeated relationship patterns.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about what feels most useful, try methods in session, and adjust based on what helps a person meet their goals. Clients and therapist work together to decide which tools to keep using and which to change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face discussion and longer work, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and other commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress.
