About Quenette

Quenette Freeman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, self-esteem concerns, relationship and family issues, and other life changes. Sessions also address sleep problems, parenting strains, career stress, and mood disorders such as depression and bipolar concerns.

Quenette uses straightforward, skills-based therapy to help people manage day-to-day difficulties. She emphasizes practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness that clients can use between sessions. She also integrates Client-Centered principles to keep the focus on each person’s priorities.

Her approach often involves short-term work aimed at specific goals. That can include identifying unhelpful thought patterns, building calmer responses to stress, and practicing attention skills to reduce rumination. She also lists EMDR and Motivational Interviewing among her methods and will draw on those as appropriate.

Quenette pays attention to family of origin issues and attachment concerns when they are relevant to current problems. She also offers support around abandonment, communication problems, control issues, and guilt and shame. First responder and veteran-related stressors are included in her areas of focus.

Sessions are conducted in English and Quenette practices in California. Costs vary by location and are handled through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the site.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities. In practice this means the therapist reflects concerns back, asks what matters most, and helps shape goals together. This approach helps people who want their own values and choices to guide the work.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. Sessions often teach specific skills such as thought records, behavioral experiments, and activity scheduling to reduce anxiety or improve mood. These tools are useful for stress, panic, and relationship-related patterns.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method sometimes used when past experiences continue to affect current reactions. In simple terms it pairs focused attention with guided processing to reduce intense emotional reactions; the therapist will explain whether it might be appropriate.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick techniques that fit their goals and preferences. Adjustments are made as progress is tracked and new needs emerge.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Discuss format preferences during the initial questionnaire and first appointment to identify what will work best.
