More about Susan

  • 25 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

Hello, It is nice to meet you. Thank-you for visiting my profile. My name is Susan Jentoft and I am a Masters leveled LPC, licensed professional counselor. I l currently live in Mississippi and have been doing mental health counseling for over 25 years. I have been a military spouse for over 30 years and have a lot of experience dealing with military issues and situations. I have an eclectic approach to counseling and use a variety of theories and techniques. Some of my favorite theories are CBT, cognitive behavioral theory. I like to work on goals and changing thinking patterns and behaviors. I also use person centered theory. This applies the usage of empathy, positive regard and non judgement. Also I use solution focused therapy. Sometimes we need to look where we are and move forward with our goals.

I would very much like to assist you on your journey. Thank-you again for viewing my profile.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
