Many people seek therapy or counseling because they struggle with their feelings. Strong feelings of sadness, fear, anger, worry, shame, guilt, and/or embarassment can be debilitating. Emotions can get in the way of health, happiness, and relationship satisfaction. Emotions can feel like the cause of a problem, the result of a problem (e.g., feeling sad about a relationship falling apart, feeling anxious about a kid struggling in school, feeling angry at yourself for procrastinating), or can be the problem itself.
Most people are never taught how to effectively regulate their feelings, because even though people learn to read, write and do math in school, there aren't classes on "managing feelings." Are you TIRED of feeling sad, angry, afraid, anxious, ashamed, embarassed, lonely, isolated, and frustrated? Do you WANT to feel more joy, love, connection, pride, and self-worth?
I can help.
My name is Dr. Jennifer Veilleux, and I am a clinical psychologist, academic researcher, parent, avid reader, and musical-theatre lover. See more about me here.
I primarily work with adult individuals and couples (i.e., couples counseling, marriage counseling). I also do corporate consulting. See more about each specific focus by clicking on the links.
I see therapy as a partnership. You bring your goals and your expertise about yourself, while I bring a knowledge of psychology (emotion, coping, effective strategies for change) and a willingness to learn about you. Together we will collaborate on helping you meet the goals you have for yourself, whatever those might be. See more about what to expect when working with me here.
I see adult individuals or couples. NEW to 2024: In-person sessions (individuals and couples) available at my studio on Mount Sequoyah! I can also see individuals and couples in online sessions.
