Jeannette Horton

My name is Jeannette Horton, although most people call me Jean. I have worked in the mental health field in various capacities since 2008 including outpatient chemical dependency treatment, community mental health agencies and long-term care communities. I work with adults and specialize in depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, older adult issues, self-esteem, anger, grief and loss, women’s issues and more. I am also a veteran with experience being deployed overseas and specialize in veteran’s issues as well. Seeing a therapist can be scary. To benefit from therapy, it’s critical that you feel safe. In fact, you deserve to be safe. So, while I very much want to help you with whatever challenges you have, please know that helping you feel safe in our relationship will be the first step. And throughout our time together, it will be one of my main priorities. What I’m most known for is my ability to have comfortable, candid, down to earth conversations about really tough stuff along with a sense of humor. Trust is key in the therapeutic relationship and to me, trust is best developed when both people feel safe to really say what’s on their mind and heart. That is how I will speak to you, and I will do everything I can to help you feel like you can speak that way to me. Clients have often told me that working with me is “like working with a real person.” I welcome the opportunity to become a safe, real person in your life whom you can trust.
