About Jeanne
Dr. Jeanne Assinthe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who brings 15 years of experience to helping people manage anger, stress, and life changes. She speaks English and Haitian Creole and practices from Florida.
Her work centers on honoring a person’s identity, history, and culture while addressing what drives distress. Jeanne focuses on understanding root causes rather than only treating symptoms. She pays attention to how systemic forces and intergenerational pain shape feelings like anger, anxiety, and emptiness.
Background and approach
In sessions she blends practical skills with conversations about meaning, connection, and resilience. Her background includes clinical practice, program leadership, and supervision. She founded Amitie Wellness, Inc., and has developed programs that combine cultural healing practices with evidence-informed methods.
She also provides qualified supervision and creates training for other clinicians. Clients can expect a collaborative process where the therapist helps set goals and teaches tools for coping and emotional regulation. Techniques may include behavior-based strategies and ways to strengthen relationships and communication.
Beyond individual sessions, Jeanne has worked with organizations on policy, equity, and community-focused programs. That experience informs her clinical perspective and helps when addressing complex problems that involve family, caregiving, or systemic stressors.

How Jeanne’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed steps toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help people who feel stuck by connecting actions to what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for anger, anxiety, and depression. Attachment-Based Therapy examines patterns in relationships and early bonds to improve current connections and reduce reactive behavior. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jeanne will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, culture, and day-to-day needs. She combines talk, skills training, and culturally informed perspectives so therapy matches what a person wants to change. Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how she currently meets with clients. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce the need for travel. Licensed professionals can still teach emotion regulation skills, practice communication techniques, and guide steps for handling anger and stress through remote sessions, while working with each person to adjust methods as therapy progresses.Questions people ask about Jeanne
