Jeanetta Garrison, LCSW
Seeking therapy may be something you have thought about before. You’ve probably even talked yourself both into and out of making the call a few times. Change can be scary, especially for you, because you like to have everything figured out before you even begin. I may not be able to predict your future, but I can tell you in order to get something different you have to do something different.
So let me first say, kudos for getting this far on your journey!
Anxiety Therapist Charlotte, NC
Hi, I’m Jeanetta Garrison, LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I’m licensed to provide counseling in North Carolina and Florida. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Florida A&M University and my Master of Social Work degree from Florida State University. I’m also a trained EMDR therapist and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional.
My experience working as a mental health therapist
I worked as a community-based mental health provider for several years providing therapeutic services to children and families in Mecklenburg County, NC. Prior to that, I was a Social Worker providing case management for children and adolescents diagnosed with chronic Immunodeficiency Deficiency Disorders such as HIV/AIDS. I’ve also held the role of Military and Family Life Counselor for several years. In this capacity, I provided therapeutic support to the brave men and women who serve in our US Military. I supported military spouses and children in this role as well. As a Military and Family Life Counselor, I worked on US military installations in the United States, Europe, the Middle East and the Pacific Region. Now, my work focuses on helping high achieving professionals calm their brains and bodies so they can live a fulfilling life without anxiety.
I have a passion for people. I believe every person can benefit from engaging in the therapeutic process at some point in their life. I am also a strong believer of utilizing education and empowerment within my therapeutic approach. I focus on my clients’ strengths while guiding them to see the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and actions. Once this connection is made, clients can begin to write their own story.
