About Jeanie Shade
Jeanie Shade is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with multi-state licensure and years of experience supporting people through difficult moments. She has seven years of licensed clinical work and additional years serving others in various roles prior to licensure. Much of her clinical time has been spent in hospital settings working with adults and adolescents facing severe mental health challenges, where she observed how powerful change can be when a person is heard and guided toward the strengths they already possess.
Shade leads community mental health education efforts, including a library group she has facilitated for two years that teaches practical wellness skills and offers members a place to practice new habits. She enjoys teaching tools that apply across life situations and believes that skills practice can make a difference no matter an individual’s background or circumstances.
Her therapeutic stance centers on presence and deep listening - witnessing rather than simply hearing. She works collaboratively to identify what a client most wants to learn or resolve, then provides guidance, insight, and skill-based instruction tailored to those goals. Foundational elements she introduces include mindfulness, leaning into and feeling emotions, centeredness and grounding, self-love, distinguishing surviving skills from thriving skills, and examining beliefs that shape personal narratives.
Her approach blends client-centered therapy, solution-focused work, and mindfulness therapy to combine practical behavioral techniques with exploration of the underlying patterns that influence how people feel and act. In addition to traditional talk therapy, Shade is a Certified Emotion Code Practitioner (CECP). The Emotion Code is described as a form of energy healing that focuses on identifying unprocessed or "trapped" emotions in the body and releasing those stuck emotional energies by locating when they were trapped and addressing them with intention. She offers flexibility in integrating Emotion Code work with talk therapy - alternating focus between the two approaches as appropriate for a client’s needs.
Shade recognizes the courage it takes to pursue growth and change and positions herself as a collaborative partner on that journey.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit?
Many people ask whether working with a therapist remotely can help. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions - research supports outcomes that can be comparable to traditional in-person care. This means that for many individuals, remote sessions can offer meaningful progress on the issues they bring.One of the clearest benefits is flexibility. Clients can choose the format that works best for them - video sessions, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make it easier to maintain continuity of care amid busy schedules or other commitments. That same flexibility also helps people try different communication styles to see what feels most effective for their needs.
Therapists and licensed professionals who offer remote work bring a range of clinical approaches, and clients have the option to request a different therapist if they feel another fit would be better. For many, online therapy offers a practical way to access skilled support while fitting treatment into daily life.
