Hi and thank you for reading my profile

Clients in my practice generally focus on restoring their mental and or physical health barriers I specialize in solution focused therapy, cognitive behavior therapy and holistic health care I typically work with adults of any culture My goal is to help individuals find peace in their daily lives, acceptance in the choices they make and too develop tools to manage daily stress My counseling style is pretty laid back. I have been described as supportive, caring, and compassionate, with a pretty good sense of humor (only said by me lol) . I like to focus on identifying your strengths and helping you to maximize them to overcome your obstacles. I'm here to help you sort through the things that are difficult right now, and offer you a safe place to be open and honest without fear of judgment. You have taken the first and most important step by reaching out for help.

I'm sorry you are having a tough time right now, but I'm really glad you are reaching out. I'd like to help you work on the struggles you are facing; and offer you a safe place to explore your thoughts and feelings.

I have 25 plus years as a clinical social l working with a multitude of ages and cultures but more importantly my experience as mother of a child with mental health challenges has lead me to focus on helping people navigate the health care system to find the resources they need.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

Amazing listener, compassionate. Quickly gets to the core of the problem and offers meaningful solutions.

She’s honestly the sweetest woman ever always takes time to listen to me without interrupting and always has something wise to tell me. She instantly helps me be in a better mood and encourages me to set goals for myself and achieve them. She’s very supportive and honest and I look forward to our sessions every week! She’s also very good at helping me ground myself! Love her so much and would totally recommend her!

Jeana is an amazing therapist

Jeana provides really helpful summaries that enable me to reframe my perspective.

I truly appreciate Jeana’s perspective and advice. She’s an active listener and I feel so lucky to have connected with her

I appreciate Jeana's down to earth approach and extensive experience as a therapist, social worker and spiritual human being. She helped me navigate a particularly difficult time in my personal and professional life. I felt like I could tell her anything and not be judged. I definitely gained new perspective through talking to her.

Jeana has an amazing and positive demeanor and she is not scared to ask the hard questions and to push you to look at yourself. I appreciate her patience as we cover topics multiple times!

Jeana is punctual to therapy sessions, listens, gives room for me to express myself, and is empathetic. I enjoyed her services

She listens to you and recommends feedback that is sincere and helpful! I also love that she paraphrases everything you say before she responds to make sure that she understands your thoughts correctly.

I had a great experience with Jeanna. I felt at ease right away and felt that I could share things with her. Thank you Jeanna!

Jeana Rooks is an amazing therapist. She is good at listening and paying attention to everything I say and gives a good perspective based on how I'm feeling and what I'm going through.

She is the Kindest Soul! Understandable and yet would help me to get my life togather What an amazingly kind soul she is I never felt so safe until I met her An amazing investment of my time and money Bless U Jeana

The concerns you'll have you wont have with her . You pick out how your session will go . If you talk she listen. If you looking for advice or redirection she is great

Jeana is fantastic, been working with her for over a year. She asks great questions to help guide me through my thought processes. She is attentive & always supportive!

Jeana is an amazing therapist! She has the perfect amount of warmth and humour but also knows how to challenge you when needed. She helped me through a few tough situations so I would definitely recommend her:)

Jeana is a great therapist and has supported me to navigate a very challenging season in my life. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a good listener who gives you time to go through your issues and deal with challenges.

Thoughtful, supportive and a wonderful companion to think through life with.

Jeana Is the kindest Soul She would understand me without even talking! Im not scared to be vulnerable around her ! No shame! No judgement! Complete acceptance and guidance ! Im so blessed

I am so grateful and happy I was matched with Jeana! I really didn't think that I would be able to connect with anyone for help and I was so wrong haha. Our sessions were productive, grounded, supportive and very helpful. She is warm, professional, and honestly felt like a smarter friend that you can really lean on. I hope for everyone to be matched with Jeana or someone as fantastic at their job as she is. 10/10 Highly Recommend!!!

Jeana is so connected and present. She is a great therapist and I would recommend her to really anyone. She is great.

Jeana was my first experience with a therapist. I was immediately at ease speaking with her. I felt that she understood my needs and has been very helpful in guiding me through a very very challenging time in my life. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a kind smile, comforting ear and wisdom navigating life's rough patches.

Jeana is a wonderful therapist. She is warm, professional, respectful and wise. Highly recommended!

Jeana Rocks has been very supportive and helped me cope during a difficult season in my life.

I have spoken to Jeana only once . Would be very happy to do this after a few more sessions so that I can give more concrete examples of her expertise.

She's really great, she's helped me a lot these past few months

Jeana always listens patiently and guides me to see the right path in most situations. She is truly god sent!

Jeana was great! I recommend her to anyone!

I’ve been working with Jeana for 5 months now and she is wonderful!!!! I have been in therapy many times throughout my life and so far my best experience has been working with Jeana

Jeanna really helped me through my tough times. She listens and understands. If I just want to rant or need advise , she adapts accordingly. Very jovial and friendly. Makes me feel very comfortable and safe.

Jeana understands exactly what my needs are and what to offer me, even when what I give here seems like a tangled up ball of thoughts. She's humorous, which I appreciate greatly, and she goes a long way to make me feel heard and supported.

Truly helped me see things from a different perspective, shunned the war going on in my mind to flowers & beaches. It is good to have some peace, thank you, Jeana

Jeana is a wonderful listener and she seems to always know what questions to ask to help you process and have a breakthrough, all while being incredibly respectful. Thank you!

Jeans really listens & is supportive in difficult/different situations!!

Jeana is so supportive in allowing me to express myself and understand the source of my anxiety. My self-esteem and confidence have significantly improved. She makes you feel like you are talking to an old friend.

Great active listener and conversationalist. She digs out the important points in my rants and explanations of how I’m feeling, and she helps me figure out the causes.

Jeana Rooks is exactly what I need to help me grow as a human being. I've only had 5 sessions with her but she is very professional, a good listener and she's very good at redirecting me to think in a different way. On top of that she never judges me (esp when I swear sometimes to let my feelings out haha) and have a laugh with me. It's been very helpful and I'm blessed to find her on Better Help. I highly recommend Jeana and I will continue my sessions with her. Thank You Jeana! You are WICKED!!! Thanks for your guidance.

Jeana is awesome. She gets right to the heart of the presenting concern and meets you at the level you're comfortable with to do the work. Active listening is one of her strengths, as well as being solution-focused, which was what I found most useful. Sessions are safe and always inspiring of self-reflection. Jeana is a great helper that I highly recommend!

I love Jeana Rooks so much. She is amazing and very understanding. She is flexible and takes her time to understand you and makes you feel at home. She makes you feel like you have known her and her energy is just amazing. She has a wonderful nurturing aura. 10000% recommend.

Jeans Brooks is a wonderful therapist. As a therapy veteran, I have had two great therapists in the past 6 years, and a handful of not so great ones. Jeana falls in the great category. She is attentive, understanding, and gives as much as you ask for.

To whoever gets Jeana as their counsellor, she is a fantastic listener and has helped me with my mental health journey. Highly recommended!

Jeana is a great therapist. One that listens …and I mean really listens. She is empathetic and very supportive. Therapy can be nerve racking and scary and can feel like you are being more vulnerable than you’ve ever been in a lifetime. She creates a safe space and makes you feel comfortable with sharing what needs to be said in that moment. She’s great.

Jeana Provides an amazing safe space where I can be myself and have the confidence to trust the process

Jeana is great. She is an amazing listener and provides a lot of support.

Jeana was absolutely amazing! She was very helpful in helping me look at things from alternative angles and viewpoints! She was very encouraging and welcoming. I felt extremely comfortable taking to her and telling her any little thought on my head. 1000/10 would recommend!!!(:

Jeana was the best thing that happened to me in a very desperate time. She got me out of a situation and helped me back up on my feet. I am lucky to have found such a wonderful therapist on BetterHelp. Thank you!

I have worked with Jeana for 2 sessions and she already created such a safe space. She is warm and comforting and brings organic humor into our sessions. She makes me feel heard while also asking questions that make me stop and reflect. It's the perfect balance and is just what I needed. I appreciate her and am excited to share my journey with her :)

Thank you

I’ve been working with Jeana for about a month now and she is PHENOMENAL! She is a great listener & asks me questions to help guide my healing process. She creates a safe space for me to open up & I always leave my therapy sessions with her feeling so much better. 100/10 recommend working with Jeana!

Jeana is kind and calming. She is a great listener and made me feel immediately at ease. I look forward to our sessions together!

I came to better help in a time of my life that I felt completely out of control. I had little to no coping mechanisms and life was just becoming so difficult. Jeana is an angel. She is kind and warm. She helps you to acknowledge your own self worth and gives you the tools to build your confidence back. She is able to do this in such a kind and nurturing way. I am so thankful that we were paired together.

Jeana was my first (and probably last) therapist here on BetterHelp and I couldn’t be more thankful and grateful! She has been such a joy to work with. She’s caring and supportive, listening with such an open mind and heart each time. Her easygoing nature and sense of humour, makes it so easy for me to be honest and vunerable and that truly allowed me to be better. It is safe to say that she has made a tremendous positive impact and change in my life and I am forever thankful. I wish you all the best Jeana and may you always be healthy and happy. Much love! <3

My time with Jeana has been illuminating and helpful. She has listened to me patiently even as I went over the same issues over and over again, and given me tools to be able to reframe my thoughts and make sense of them. She is very open and patient, and makes an effort to understand my culture and background (which is different from hers) and tries to take it into account. I have benefitted greatly from having my weekly sessions with her. Often I just needed someone to talk it out with and she has been a great sounding board.

Jeana Rooks makes me feel heard. She is very down to earth and truly makes me feel like I’m not alone in what I’m going through. She’s very professional and at the same time so personable I truly feel like I’m venting to a close friend. She presents advice and direction in a way that doesn’t feel unattainable.

Jeana is lovely to talk to and made me feel very comfortable.

Jeana is a fantastic therapist that I immediately felt connected to and comfortable with in our first session. I feel heard, respected and supported by her in a genuine way and I always find myself with a new perspective on my life and challenges after we talk. She's a positive, gentle support that I'm so grateful to have found! Would recommend her to anyone.

Jeana is the by far the best therapist and person I have encountered in a long time! She brings in the positivity and light that my life requires at the moment. It's amazing how she helps me clear my thoughts and focus on the important aspects. She is exactly what I need and I am so glad I found her at betterhelp!

Jeana is an amazing support. She is empathetic, kind, and has helped me so much.

Jeana listens and is very attentive and has a positive outlook

Getting help and taking the extra step to go to therapy ca be very intimidating and scary. Jeana Rooks has been an excellent therapist for someone like me, who has sought out therapy for the first time. She made me feel comfortable and accepted, willing to hear me out and create a casual environment that made me feel safe. Her About Me is beyond accurate and I would recommend her to anyone who is especially just starting out!

She is a miracle worker. I feel like each session I am able to understand and navigate through my problems and issues and feel better by the end.

Jeana Rooks Is this amazing helped me Me out when I was at my lowest point In life now I have a completely different outlook and my future and Could not be more happier. Thanks Jeana for giving me ny life back!

She is amazing

Jeanna listens without judgment and gives great tools and techniques to help me cope with my anxiety. I always look forward to discussion with her in my therapy sessions. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking therapy.

She is very understanding, supportive, and provides helpful suggestions.
