Jeannette Horton is known to most people as Jean and has worked in the mental health field in various capacities since 2008, including outpatient chemical dependency treatment, community mental health agencies, and long-term care communities. She holds WA LMHC LH60401133 (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) and has 14 years of professional experience in providing therapy to adults.
She works with adults and specializes in stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief and loss, self-esteem, anger, older adult issues, women’s issues, relationship and family concerns, career challenges, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. Her practice also includes work with LGBT and gay clients, and she is listed as a female therapist with non-religious and liberal practice descriptors.
Horton is a veteran who has been deployed overseas and includes veterans' issues among her areas of focus. She places a high priority on making the therapeutic relationship a safe place to begin work together - helping clients feel safe is described as the first step in therapy and remains a central focus throughout treatment.
She is known for having candid, down-to-earth conversations about difficult topics while bringing a sense of humor to the work. Trust is essential in the therapeutic relationship, and Horton encourages honesty and openness so both people can say what is on their mind and heart. Many clients have often said that working with her feels “like working with a real person,” and she welcomes the opportunity to become a dependable, genuine presence in a client’s life.
