About Jenelle
Jenelle Hoyt is an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, career concerns, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting stress, anger, ADHD, and codependency. Sessions focus on practical problem-solving and clearer day-to-day coping.
Jenelle listens and helps people notice the thoughts that steer their reactions. She uses that awareness to test whether those thoughts are helpful and to build different habits. Conversations often include identifying small, doable steps and practicing new responses to difficult emotions.
Her background includes work with trauma, grief, and people managing life changes and caregiver strain. She draws on several evidence-based approaches when shaping a plan, and she checks goals regularly so progress stays connected to what matters to the client. People who feel overwhelmed by other people's needs or by chaotic relationships can expect direct, skill-focused work.
In sessions she addresses patterns like people-pleasing, trouble saying no, and difficulty setting boundaries. She also supports those coping with the ripple effects of addiction and strong emotions from the past. The focus is on learning concrete strategies and building emotional skills that make everyday life more manageable.
Jenelle writes treatment plans and revisits them with clients so the work stays practical. She offers support in English and practices in Illinois as an LCPC. To begin, the site matching process is used to schedule an initial session.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that line up with their values rather than getting stuck in avoidance. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and old relationship patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing those thoughts with small experiments. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and building clearer coping skills. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relational patterns affect current relationships and emotional response, which can be useful for people who struggle with trust, abandonment fears, or codependent behaviors.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review the client’s concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That selection is collaborative and may change as goals evolve.
Confirm available session formats before booking since options were not specified in the biography. Many people find online sessions helpful because they fit into workdays, reduce travel time, and make it easier to maintain consistency. Others prefer a shorter check-in when life is particularly busy. Talk with the therapist about what will fit into daily life and which format makes it easiest to practice the skills discussed in sessions.
