“Jeanette listens and contributes meaningful comments to my issues. She is caring and interested in my concerns. Have had several therapists over the years and she is one of the few who provides feedback on observations without seeming ~ as so many do ~ just a counselor who remains a listener with a dispassionate response that often feels textbook and not with thoughtful understanding.”

Getting to know Jeanette Shin
Hi there, I'm Jeanette!
My name is Jeanette Shin, LCSW. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I believe we are capable of healing ourselves and can develop the ability to find self-compassion and the potential to thrive. I work with clients on anxiety, depression, stress, grief, aging, and pain.
My approach
I approach clients with a mindfulness and client-centered focus, incorporating elements of CBT, DBT, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, and spirituality as needed.
My focus
I have worked mostly with adults, especially older adults, and feel able to support clients dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, aging, grief, and bereavement.
My communication style
I like to create a mutually respectful atmosphere and listen carefully to what my clients share with me. I emphasize a safe and nonjudgmental space.
My journey to therapy
I spent several years as a military chaplain. During this time, I discovered how important mental health is to all individuals. Since leaving the military, I have focused on continuing on the path of “right livelihood” (a Buddhist ideal) to help others as I am able.
My goals for you
Does the client have specific goals, or do they need help with goal-setting? What does the client want to get out of therapy, or do they just need to be “heard”? Even just being heard is a type of goal.
My first session with you
A shared introduction, and I will ask some questions about the client’s history and lifestyle to get a better idea of how to help and what the client is here for.
