About Jenenne
Dr. Jenenne Valentino-Bottaro offers direct, respectful care for people dealing with stress, anxiety, ADHD and life transitions. She writes and speaks plainly and focuses on helping people regain energy and direction.
Her approach aims to build self-leadership and practical skills for everyday challenges. She has 12 years of clinical experience and holds LMHC and LCMHC licenses. She uses a blend of therapies to meet real-life needs rather than one fixed method.
Background and approach
Sessions are warm and interactive, with an emphasis on pacing that fits each person. Her work often addresses trauma, grief, eating concerns, addictions, and low self-esteem. She also helps people facing career strain, caregiver stress, relationship or intimacy-related issues, and mood concerns such as depression or bipolar symptoms.
ADHD is among the concerns she lists and is considered alongside other presenting problems. In sessions she focuses on building resilience and practical tools. That can mean learning new behavior strategies, practicing emotion regulation skills, or using attention-focused techniques that fit daily routines.
She avoids stigmatizing labels and centers each person’s goals. Her background blends cognitive and experiential methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered work. That mix supports both short-term coping and longer-term growth.
The aim is to help people heal, connect with their strengths, and move toward a clearer sense of self.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small committed steps toward those values. It often supports work on anxiety, motivation, and life changes by combining practical actions with mindful awareness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors in daily life, which can ease symptoms of anxiety, depression, and attention-related struggles. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, useful for intense emotions and relationship strain.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, current challenges, and what feels most helpful. Together they try methods and adjust over time so the plan fits the person’s needs and pace.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, reminders, coaching between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy lives and keep continuity during transitions.
