About Jean
Jean Kraljev is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Florida with 25 years of experience. She works with adults facing depression, addictions, career uncertainty, relationship concerns, trauma, and major life changes. She also addresses issues such as self-esteem, eating concerns, and compassion fatigue. Jean offers practical support for people who feel stuck or unsure what comes next after a change in work, health, or relationships.
In sessions she focuses on clear conversation and goal-oriented steps. She uses approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques to notice patterns of thought and behavior, and acceptance-based methods to clarify values and next steps. Attachment-informed work and client-centered listening guide how she responds to trust and relationship concerns.
Her style emphasizes straightforward discussion about what is happening now and what could be different. She helps people set small, doable steps to try between sessions. When appropriate, she draws on dialectical skills to manage strong emotions and on ACT ideas to reconnect to what matters most.
Jean combines practical problem solving with attention to how past relationships shape present choices. She supports people working through divorce, grief, loss, aging issues, and complicated feelings such as guilt, shame, or isolation. She also addresses concerns tied to HIV/AIDS, gender dysphoria, and end-of-life planning in a direct, conversational way.
Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling process is used to set up the first meeting and discuss goals.
How Jean applies therapeutic approaches online
Jean commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small steps toward those values, which can help when life feels directionless. CBT looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people try different ways of responding to persistent patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jean will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try first. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve over time.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-in meetings when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people keep continuity of care across locations when international arrangements apply. Jean uses these approaches to help clients translate practical strategies into everyday life.
