About Juanita
LCSW in Tennessee with 25 years of experience, Juanita Chism Doss supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, parenting strains, relationship problems, grief, and addiction-related concerns.
She keeps sessions focused and practical. She helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns, try small behavior changes, and build straightforward coping skills. Sessions typically involve talking through recent events, identifying problems, and practicing concrete strategies to feel more in control.
Juanita uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. She teaches skills to challenge negative thinking and to test new behaviors in everyday life. The work often includes short exercises between sessions to practice new ways of responding.
Her style is collaborative and goal-oriented. She helps set clear, manageable goals and tracks progress over time. Sessions are paced to fit what each person needs, with practical steps rather than long theoretical discussion.
Clinical experience across 25 years gives her familiarity with a wide range of common life disruptions. She draws on that background to offer steady, focused support for people trying to manage mood changes, family stress, or major life transitions.

How CBT shapes online sessions and practical benefits
CBT concentrates on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In practice this means identifying negative thinking patterns, testing them with small behavioral experiments, and learning new ways to respond. This approach is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood regulation issues and focuses on clear skills you can use between sessions.Sessions emphasize short, focused exercises that build coping skills over time. The therapist and client work together to choose which techniques fit current goals and daily life. That collaborative process helps decide whether to use cognitive techniques, behavioral tasks, or a mix based on what the client needs and prefers.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as formats are not listed here. In general, online therapy can make scheduling simpler and let people fit sessions around work, childcare, or school. It can also make brief check-ins easier when time is limited, or allow sessions without needing travel time. The therapist will discuss practical arrangements and the best way to fit sessions into everyday routines.
