About
As a Black woman clinical mental health counselor and community care provider, I create space with clients, especially those carrying the weight of relational and systemic stress, to explore their emotions, challenge harmful thoughts, reconnect with their bodies, and build lives rooted in dignity and collective care.
I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor associate (LCMHCA) with 9 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I work with concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, substance use, grief, identity development, and relational challenges. I value working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and recognize how intersecting identities and systemic factors can influence wellness.
I hold a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from North Carolina A&T State University. My approach is integrated and trauma-informed, drawing from person-centered therapy, emotion-focused therapy, and relational-cultural theory. I also incorporate cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavioral, expressive arts, and somatic techniques.
Therapy is a collaborative space where you can explore emotions, build self-awareness, and move toward meaningful change. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you feel seen and understood. If you are ready to begin or continue your wellness journey, I invite you to schedule a session.

As a clinician with a wide scope of practice experience, and an individual living with a mental health disorder, I understand the importance of providing a balance of empathy, directness, positive regard, and the ability to teach the tools of coping skills to manage mental health symptoms and other stressors in order to thrive!
Jean Mitchell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 23 years of direct clinical services and social work business management experience in a variety of settings. These include community mental health, hospital-based crisis stabilization, long-term care, hospice, and substance use outpatient and residential treatment. Jean is credentialed/paneled with Medicare, Medicare Advantage, and most major private insurance companies. Jean places importance on working with a diverse population of individuals and has knowledge and experience that includes respect for, sensitivity to, and understanding of cultural differences. Jean's direct services practice areas are individual and group mental/behavioral health services, substance use treatment services, life skills coaching and education, LGBTQ+ issues (particularly working with transgender and gender fluid individuals), domestic violence, women's issues, adolescents (particularly girls), and grief and aging issues.
Jean is a graduate of the inaugural class (1997-1999) of the Joint MSW (JMSW) program at North Carolina A & T State University and the University of North Carolina-Greensboro, where she received her MSW degree in 1999. Jean received a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in psychology and a minor in sociology at the University of Houston in 1996. It was Jean's own experience with mental/behavioral health issues that led her to social work and clinical therapy as a profession. This is a second career for Jean, as she worked in Business Management in the oilfield industry prior to making the decision to return to school to complete her Bachelor of Science and Master of Social Work degrees. Since receiving her MSW degree, Jean has worked in a variety of roles, including direct service and business management for public health and behavioral health organizations. Jean has experience in providing a broad range of treatment interventions including CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), DBT (dialectical behavior therapy), motivational interviewing, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, experiential therapy, and structured interventions.
At some point in life, most people face challenges that can make day-to-day functioning difficult, whether that be mental health, behavioral health, life stressors, loss, or grief. Jean's own life experience, coupled with her experience as a clinical therapist, makes her particularly suited to work with a diverse population of individuals. She does note that while she cannot "fix" you, she can work with you to help you identify your issues and find solutions to help you fix yourself. If you are ready to do that, schedule an appointment with her today!
