🌊 Sometimes it crashes over you without warning—a memory, a scent, a song.

Don’t fight the wave. Let it wash over you, knowing that it will pass.

Each wave brings you closer to a shore where the pain softens and the love remains.

You are not alone in the water. Keep breathing. Keep floating.

The tide always shifts.

Stress is natural—but chronic stress doesn’t have to be. 🌱 Try deep breathing or a walk in nature to reset your mind.

Grief isn’t always about death.

It can also stem from a breakup, job loss, moving away, or even growing out of an old version of yourself.

💡 If you’re feeling sadness, confusion, or disconnection after a big life change—that’s grief, too. And it’s valid.

✨ You’re allowed to mourn what was, even as you step into something new

More than 280 million people around the world experience depression.

And anxiety is one of the most common mental health conditions in the U.S.

The good news?

Both are treatable.

Through therapy, many people regain control over their thoughts, sleep better, and begin to feel like themselves again.

You can, too.

About

Hello, my name is Dr. Jeanette Gaines.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I received my Doctorate of Education in Counseling Psychology from Argosy University in Chicago Illinois. I received my Masters of Education in School Counseling and a Bachelors of Art in Psychology both from Delta State University in Cleveland Mississippi.

I have been practicing counseling since 1999. I started my counseling career as a School Guidance Counselor. I worked as a School Guidance Counselor for 4 years. Then, I worked as a Child and Youth Counselor in the private sector. I have been providing counseling exclusively to service members and their families since 2011. Additionally, I served 13 years in the United Stated Army Reserves as a Psychiatric Specialist. Over the years I have developed expertise in working with Service Members and their families.

I provide individual, family, marital, child/youth, and group counseling. Areas of expertise include: Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, self-esteem, family dysfunctions, behavioral modification, anger management, stress reduction, and domestic violence.
