Jeffrey Forget, LMHC

Jeffrey Forget is a licensed mental health counselor with over 32 years of clinical experience. He trained at Antioch New England Graduate School and holds LMHC credentials in New York and Massachusetts. He brings long experience from inpatient and outpatient settings to each meeting.

Jeffrey focuses on listening first. He aims to understand who a person is, where they come from, and where they want to go. Sessions emphasize building a respectful, honest working relationship to support steady progress over time.

In practice he blends insight-oriented psychodynamic work with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. That means he will help people reflect on past patterns while also using concrete strategies to manage thoughts, mood, and behavior. The goal is to make thinking and coping feel more useful day to day.

He works with a range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addiction, trauma, intimacy-related issues, parenting strains, ADHD, mood disorders, and caregiver stress. Jeffrey also addresses issues like attachment, abandonment, isolation, career strain, and obsessive or compulsive symptoms.

Jeffrey approaches each person as an individual. He will adapt methods to match a client's needs and preferences. People who want steady, thoughtful guidance and a mix of reflection and hands-on tools often find his style a good fit.

How his approaches guide online care

Jeffrey often uses attachment-based ideas to help people understand how past relationships affect current feelings and reactions. This approach looks at patterns of connection and helps people notice how those patterns shape stress, intimacy, and caregiving roles.

He also relies on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT offers straightforward exercises for anxiety, mood problems, and obsessive or compulsive behaviors that can be practiced between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will talk with each person about goals, needs, and preferences, and together they decide which methods to emphasize. The process is collaborative and adjusts over time as progress and challenges appear.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Online work can still include reflective conversation, behavioral experiments, and mindfulness practices adapted to the setting.
