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 works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, intimacy-related concerns, and related issues.

He takes time to learn who a person is and what they need. Sessions focus on understanding where someone comes from and where they want to go. Jeffrey emphasizes building a trusting, honest therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change.

Jeffrey combines insight-oriented psychodynamic work with practical methods when useful. He often draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness skills to address patterns that cause distress. The aim is to pair deeper understanding with tools people can use day to day.

His caseload has included work in inpatient and outpatient settings over decades. That background informs a flexible approach to problems such as mood disorders, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related issues. He also lists focus on ADHD, parenting stresses, and relationship concerns.

Sessions move at a pace set by the client and emphasize collaboration. Jeffrey is optimistic about the possibility of lasting change and helps people identify concrete steps toward their goals. To begin, visitors complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Jeffrey often uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand why they react or connect in certain ways and can be useful for intimacy-related concerns and commitment issues.

He also employs cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT offers straightforward exercises and skill-building that many people can apply between sessions to manage anxiety, mood shifts, and compulsive habits.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match goals, preferences, and life circumstances to methods that fit. That may mean focusing more on insight work some weeks and practical skills in others.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-in meetings when needed, and remove travel time so people can use appointment slots that suit their day. Licensed professionals, including this therapist, can adapt these approaches to remote work while focusing on clients' goals and daily life challenges.
