Jeannette Sedor, LPC

Jeannette Sedor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 17 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood disorders, and relationship strain. Her approach is calm and straightforward, and she aims to meet people where they are in life.

She works in a way that centers the individual's needs. Sessions begin with listening to what feels most urgent. From there she and the person set practical goals and try tools that fit daily life. Dialog is tailored to each person rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.

Jeannette combines approaches that include attachment-based work and cognitive behavioral methods. That mix supports emotional understanding and practical behavior change. Mindfulness techniques are also used to build moment-to-moment coping skills.

Her background includes helping people with grief, trauma and abuse, post-traumatic stress, and traumatic brain injury concerns among other issues. She also supports clients facing chronic pain, illness, and life transitions like divorce or career change.

People who want a respectful and compassionate listener will find a steady presence in sessions. Jeannette emphasizes clear steps, small experiments, and steady skill building. She encourages anyone taking the first step to reach out and start the process.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Jeannette blends client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting conversation so the person feels heard and respected. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior and uses simple exercises to change unhelpful routines and reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize emotion-focused listening, practical behavioral steps, or a mix of both.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they fit more easily into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. A clear plan is set each step of the way so the work stays relevant and manageable.
