Getting to know Jean-Marie Whittington

My name is Jean-Marie Whittington, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Social Work from Boise State University. I offer a flexible, personalized approach to therapy, drawing from a range of proven modalities including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, solution-focused therapy, somatic techniques, and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). I believe every person is unique, which is why I tailor my methods to align with your individual needs and goals. Whether you're looking to manage stress, build resilience, or create lasting change, I'm here to provide the support and tools that work best for you. Together, we'll create a path that fits your journey toward greater mental health and well-being. My approach to therapy is client-centered, collaborative, and integrative, tailored to meet your specific needs, values, and goals. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your challenges, uncover your strengths, and develop the tools necessary for healing and growth. I often draw on cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, replacing them with healthier perspectives. I also incorporate trauma-informed care, ensuring that our work together acknowledges the impact of past experiences while fostering a sense of safety and empowerment. To further support emotional regulation and self-awareness, I integrate mindfulness techniques and somatic practices that encourage a deeper connection to the body and present-moment awareness. This approach is particularly helpful in managing stress and healing from trauma. For clients focused on practical solutions, I use solution-focused therapy to identify strengths and resources while developing actionable steps for change. Additionally, I may draw from dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to help clients manage intense emotions, build coping skills, and increase emotional resilience.
