Jean Hamilton is a Clinical Social Worker and Therapist, holding an MSW and LCSW, dedicated to helping adults and elders navigate life's complexities. She recognizes that many individuals face challenges that can feel overwhelming, caught in a sea of ambiguity, uncertainty, and self-doubt. Jean understands how the fear of not meeting personal or societal expectations can lead to self-criticism and mental distress. She specializes in supporting clients through significant life transitions, fostering an ability to remain present rather than becoming mired in past regrets or future anxieties. Utilizing mindfulness-based psychotherapies, particularly Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), she offers effective guidance for those dealing with stress, anxiety, and various life changes. Through her experience with older adults and caregivers, including a history with a geriatric care agency and hospice, Jean has developed a compassionate approach tailored to individual needs. Her background as a former college professor in economics and a public health researcher also enriches her practice, as she aspires to support university students in their unique challenges. Jean's expertise is grounded in evidence-based approaches, making her a valuable ally for clients seeking to navigate the complexities of their lives.
