About Jeanette

Jeanette Gadeberg is a Minnesota LICSW with 43 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting concerns, family conflict, relationship strain, and life changes. She also supports those exploring life purpose and dealing with adoption, attachment, autism, codependency, or immigration issues.

Jeanette focuses on clear conversation and practical next steps. She offers 45 minute sessions and asks for live video so both people can see each other. She includes some tasks to think about during the week to keep momentum between sessions. Messaging between appointments is available for brief check-ins.

Her approach is action oriented and reflective. Sessions look at current problems and small changes that can make daily life easier. She helps people set goals, notice patterns, and try different ways of responding to stress and relationship problems. Homework is used to extend what happens in the session into real situations.

Jeanette has worked with adults for decades and highlights women over 40 as a common focus. She talks plainly about the realities of midlife shifts, parenting strain, and changing relationships. Her style is direct and grounded in everyday life rather than jargon.

People considering a first session can expect a practical first meeting that reviews goals and immediate concerns. She asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session through the site's booking flow. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches used and how online sessions work

Jeanette uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on clear, practical work. One common approach she uses is structured problem solving, which breaks large problems into specific steps and small experiments to try between sessions. This can help with stress, anxiety, and managing daily demands.

She also uses goal-focused work that helps people identify what matters next and set manageable targets. That approach suits people facing life transitions, parenting strain, midlife questions, or a search for life purpose. Each method is grounded in real life tasks rather than vague theory.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jeanette treats therapy as a collaboration and will help figure out which techniques fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She reviews progress and adjusts methods as needed so sessions stay practical and relevant.

Practical benefits of having sessions online include fitting appointments into a busy week and keeping continuity when life is unpredictable. Jeanette requests live video for appointments and offers 45 minute meetings; confirm current session options before booking. Messaging between sessions is available for short check-ins, which can help maintain momentum between meetings.
