“As a firefighter, I carry a lot of stress from the job, and it’s not easy to open up about it. Jay understood the pressure I’m under and gave me a space where I didn’t feel like I had to explain everything or be tough all the time. She helped me find ways to manage the stress without shutting down at home. I’ve noticed a big difference not just in how I handle work, but in my relationship too. I can’t recommend her enough, especially for first responders who feel like no one really gets it."”

“I'm an attorney, used to high stress, long hours, and always being on. I didn’t realize how much it was taking a toll on me until I started working with Jay. She created a space where I could be honest without feeling weak. The strategies we worked on were practical and fit my demanding life. I feel more more present at home, and better able to handle the pressures of my career. I’d highly recommend her to any one”

Getting to know Jeanette Krenek

Feeling wrung-out by constant demands, late-night worry loops, or tension at home? I specialize in helping high-achieving professionals, busy parents, and LGBTQ+ adults in Texas turn chronic stress into sustainable resilience—without judgment or one-size-fits-all advice. What I treat Burnout & work anxiety – regain focus, set realistic boundaries, and quiet “never enough” self-talk. Relationship & communication strain – shift from criticism or shutdown to clarity and connection. Trauma & moral injury – practical, neuroscience-informed tools to settle your nervous system and reclaim a sense of safety. Medicare & mid-life transitions – address grief, caregiving stress, and the mix of freedom + uncertainty that can surface after 50. How I work Conversational, trauma-informed style – you’ll feel heard, not analyzed from a distance. Evidence-based blend – mindfulness, Emotionally Focused Therapy, polyvagal-informed nervous-system regulation, and CBT/ACT skills you can practice between sessions. Real-life tailoring – sessions focus on the exact bottlenecks you bring that week; no canned worksheets unless they fit your goal.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My style is conversational, direct, and deeply collaborative. Expect a warm check-in, clear goals for each visit, and practical tools you can start using the same day. Sessions move between insight-oriented questions—Why does this trigger me? What belief is driving the spiral?—and skill practice: guided breathing, boundary scripts, or quick mindfulness drills you’ll try on the call. I weave Emotionally Focused Therapy for relationships, polyvagal-informed nervous-system work for trauma and anxiety, and CBT/ACT reframing for stubborn thought loops. You’ll always know why we’re using a given technique and how it links to the big picture we set in Session 1. Homework is light—often a five-minute exercise or a single conversation—because change has to fit busy lives. My promise: a judgment-free space, evidence-based strategies, and focused sessions that respect both your schedule and your capacity.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

A session with me feels focused and uplifting: we start with a quick pulse check, lock in one goal that will move the needle—calmer thoughts, clearer communication, steadier mood—and practice a research-backed skill tailored to you. Together we’ll map a collaborative plan that guides each visit toward your bigger vision, so you log off feeling heard, lighter, and armed with one simple action you can use right away.
