Jeannette Sedor, LPC

Jeannette Sedor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 17 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She works with issues like self-esteem, motivation, grief, anger, and trauma and abuse in clear, direct conversation.

Jeannette uses a tailored approach rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. She listens first, then shapes sessions to match each person's goals and needs. That can mean practical skills for coping with panic or mood shifts, or talking through difficult life transitions and career stresses.

Her work draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships influence feelings. She also uses client-centered conversation to help people feel heard and CBT-style tools to spot unhelpful thoughts. Mindfulness practices are offered when people want simple ways to reduce reactivity and increase focus.

Her background includes support for people facing chronic pain, illness, disability, first responder and veteran issues, and challenges after sexual assault or traumatic brain injury. She also addresses concerns like abandonment, body image, money stress, and end-of-life caregiving strain.

Jeannette emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in sessions. She encourages small steps and practical strategies. People who choose her can expect straightforward talk, collaborative planning, and ongoing adjustments to what’s working.

How her approaches translate to online work

Jeannette uses attachment-based work to look at how relationships shape feelings and safety in close connections. That approach helps when relationship patterns, abandonment fears, or partner-related stress keep showing up in daily life.

She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize listening and understanding. Sessions give people room to speak without interruption and then move toward practical next steps that match their goals. Cognitive behavioral tools are used selectively to identify unhelpful thought patterns and build new coping skills for anxiety, mood shifts, and panic.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jeannette will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan over time as progress is seen.

Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life because it removes commuting and can shorten transitions between obligations. It also lets people use simpler check-ins or practice skills in the moment, which can help with managing panic, mood changes, or stress during a workday.
