About Joanette
Joanette Pulskamp-Jackson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 24 years of practice listed in Colorado and Ohio. She holds the credentials LCSW, CSW, and LISW and focuses on a broad set of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, and parenting.
She prefers a straightforward, client-centered way of working. Sessions are practical and focused on what a person needs now. Joanette uses tools from methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when they fit the situation.
Clients meet to talk through current struggles and to build concrete skills. That can include managing symptoms of anxiety or depression, handling grief, addressing substance use patterns, or improving communication around parenting and family matters. She also works with people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, and family-of-origin concerns.
Joanette aims to help people notice what matters to them and practice small changes that reduce everyday strain. Sessions often include clear exercises, skill practice, and check-ins on progress. Progress is paced to each person's needs and circumstances.
She offers services in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, the client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session through the See online therapy options button.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice values and take small, committed actions toward them. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by focusing on what matters rather than only on symptom reduction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replacing them with more effective ones. CBT is frequently used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and for building concrete coping skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Joanette collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She may draw from ACT, CBT, or other approaches together with the client as the plan develops.
Confirm the specific session formats she currently offers before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing meetings during breaks or from different locations. Some options may be better for brief check-ins, while others suit longer skill-building sessions. Discuss scheduling and format preferences when you set up the first appointment.
