Meet Jeanie Winstrom
As an experienced licensed mental health therapist, I’ve been honored to work with many high-achieving accomplished professionals to help them realize their goals and live a joyful and fulfilled happy life. I provide a safe therapeutic space for you to explore the issues you’re dealing with so you can gain insight and move toward a healthier more fulfilling life.
Together, we’ll use a collaborative therapeutic approach to help you find the solutions that work best for you- in your life, because every client is unique.
Being a therapist means I walk next to you not in front of you pulling your arm we’re behind you pushing you up. This process allows you to move as slow or as fast as you decide. Full of highs and lows, twists and turns, nail biting turns both slow and fast- therapy is much like a roller coaster. Equally so, it’s full of many similar emotions. Embrace your bravery and courage and enjoy all the emotions and experiences you will have during your therapy.
My hope is that you grow and blossom and move from being stuck and struggling to thriving and enjoying life as you were meant to. I cherish the opportunity to help you with some of the most challenging things in your life. It’s an honor and a privilege to help someone move through the darkest moments of their life.

Training
I have completed both levels of training for clinical hypnosis through the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis. I am nationally certified in clinical hypnosis by NBCCH.
I have completed both the basic and advanced level trainings in EMDR as well as the additional hours of clinical supervision.
I have trained extensively in facilitating Self Esteem, beginning in 1999 with a week-long training given by my mentor and friend, Jack Canfield and am continuing to this day.
I have also had additional training in trauma, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, Mandt, and Supporting First Responders.
Here’s how working with me is different:
As a cognitive behavioral therapist, I wasn’t initially sold on the idea that therapy and healing could take place over the internet. Personal experience has proven me wrong in the last decade! Technology can be a powerful tool for transformation. Many of my clients travel frequently or find it challenging to make it to appointments regularly, so incorporating phone or secure video sessions can be a great way to keep engaged in your personal transformation when coming into the office isn’t an option.
I offer psychotherapy sessions via phone and secure video to clients in Alaska, Georgia, Montana, Minnesota, Wyoming, and Washington where I hold licenses to practice. State law regulates the types of services offered online, which limits my ability to provide therapy to those not residing in these regions.
I am able to offer non-clinical support by way of consulting and skills training to anyone with a computer or a telephone. Learning and practicing trauma-informed self-care can be a great way to prepare for an intensive therapy retreat with me, or can be used as a compliment to ongoing therapy with a specialist in your area.
