About Jeanie
LCSW Jeanie Shade has eight years of licensed experience and practices in Arkansas. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, anger, self-esteem issues, and major life changes.
Jeanie draws on client-centered therapy, solution-focused work, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral ideas. She listens closely, asks what a person wants to learn or resolve, and teaches practical skills to use day to day. Sessions often include learning grounding and emotion-awareness techniques and practicing coping tools that fit real life.
Much of her clinical background comes from work in hospital settings with adults and adolescents who had serious mental health needs. She has also run community groups teaching mental health wellness skills at a local library, offering a place to learn and practice new strategies.
In sessions she prioritizes hearing a person’s story and exploring how beliefs shape behavior. Jeanie introduces concepts like the difference between surviving skills and thriving skills, self-directed care, and ways to notice and work with strong emotions. The focus is on clear, teachable strategies alongside conversations about why patterns persist.
Clients who want a mix of talking and concrete tools can expect direct guidance, skill teaching, and collaborative problem solving. To begin, people are asked what they want to change and then supported with step-by-step techniques and reflective work.

How Jeanie integrates approaches in remote sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and supporting a person to find their own answers. In practice this means the therapist reflects what a client says, asks clarifying questions, and helps the person identify goals and next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses straightforward exercises and behavior experiments to change patterns that increase anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to notice emotions and reduce reactivity; these skills are useful for stress, anger, and mood management.Choosing which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide what feels most useful based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Over early sessions she will suggest techniques, check how they fit, and adjust the plan with the client.
Confirm current session formats before booking since specific online options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and let people practice skills between meetings. The focus is on practical tools and conversation that translate to everyday life, with the therapist helping adapt methods to each person’s routine.
