About Joanette
Joanette Pulskamp-Jackson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 24 years of practice experience in Colorado and Ohio. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addiction, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Sessions focus on concrete strategies to manage symptoms and make daily life more manageable.
Her background includes work across caregiving, workplace stress, and complex family issues. She uses several evidence-informed approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and client-centered methods. These shape how she structures conversations and practice between sessions.
Joanette tends to use practical tools - thought records, behavior experiments, emotion regulation skills, and values-based planning. She helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Sessions aim to teach skills that can be practiced between meetings to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines.
She has worked with people facing parenting strain, caregiving stress, adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, and aging-related challenges. She also addresses substance use, codependency, and the effects of domestic violence and family-of-origin problems.
Joanette holds credentials as LCSW, CSW, and LISW, with licenses in Colorado (LCSW) and Ohio (LISW). Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted. The subscription-based fee varies by location and can be canceled at any time.
How Joanette uses structured approaches in online work
Joanette commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to change how someone feels and functions. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleeping and eating concerns, and many daily stressors. ACT emphasizes values-based action and learning to allow difficult feelings without letting them drive behavior, which can help with grief, addiction, and long-term stress.She also uses client-centered techniques that prioritize the client's perspective and goals, shaping sessions around what the person wants to address. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences and try methods that match those aims, adapting as work continues.
