Donna Jo Smolenski
MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC
I chose to become a PMHNP because it is a perfect match with my character and demeanor. I believe that every person deserves to be treated with respect and dignity and provided the best quality care, as well as promoting mental and physical wellness. It is important to be positive and honest. I easily connect with my clients allowing them to readily share openly and honestly.
My approach is to treat the whole person and situation, rather than just the symptoms of the illness to promote the highest level of wellness.

Jeannie James
LPC-S, LPC, LAC-S, LAC, MAC
Hi I’m Jeannie James. I have devoted over 25 years of my life to the mission of helping people through the therapy process. I enjoy working with school-age students to older adults in individual, couples, and family therapy with issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, substance use, etc. I am trained in several theoretical approaches/training models such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization reprocessing, family systems, Gottman method couples therapy, as well as others but my #1 treatment tool is always the therapeutic relationship. I am proud to say that I served in the US Army and then in the KY Army National Guard. I attended undergraduate and graduate school in Kentucky with a background in Clinical Psychology. I am happy to meet in person, by video, or by phone. I believe every single person that I have the pleasure and privilege to work with deserves to be treated with the utmost respect and compassion and is capable of change as long as they have hope, are willing to do the hard work, and have some healthy social support.
Therapy = Hope = A realization/reminder that I AM: a perfectly imperfect human being full of possibility and potential
