About Jeanie

Jeanie Staub is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Arkansas with 30 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression, stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and codependency. Jeanie also supports those coping with grief, sleep or eating struggles, parenting pressure, ADHD, and major life changes.

Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. Sessions center on the client's concerns and practical steps to feel steadier day to day. She uses conversational work to identify patterns that keep people stuck, then tries tools to change those patterns. Expect a mix of problem-solving and skills practice rather than long theory lectures.

Jeanie draws from client-centered methods to keep the work grounded in what matters most to the individual. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts, and dialectical behavior strategies to manage strong emotions. Mindfulness and solution-focused ideas are woven in when they help make quick, usable changes.

Her background spans outpatient and community settings, with long experience supporting people who face substance-related problems, trauma histories, chronic stress, and complicated family dynamics. She adapts pacing and topics to each person's readiness and goals. The emphasis is on concrete skills, clearer communication, and safer boundaries.

To start, Jeanie asks people to describe the problems that matter most to them and their immediate goals. From there she helps set realistic short-term steps while keeping an eye on longer-term coping and recovery.

How sessions work

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's priorities and uses reflective listening to clarify what matters. It helps people feel heard and shapes goals based on their own values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for regulating intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness; it can be helpful when anger or mood swings get in the way of daily life.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist and client will explore which approaches fit the client's needs, goals, and preferences. Decisions about technique and pacing are made together so the plan stays useful and manageable.

The source biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a longer visit isn't possible. Some formats also let people avoid being on camera or use less bandwidth for phone-based check-ins. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for your routine and immediate concerns.
