About Jamesetter
Jamesetter Credell is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina with 15 years of experience. She brings a warm, respectful approach and focuses on what matters to each person. Sessions emphasize practical steps and clear conversation to address daily struggles.
She draws on Narrative therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves. That work often pairs with cognitive-behavioral tools to spot and change unhelpful thinking.
Background and approach
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy strategies and DBT skills are used when managing strong emotions or persistent stress. Jamesetter has supported people facing depression, anxiety, anger, grief, and trauma and abuse. She also helps those dealing with ADHD, sleep difficulties, parenting strain, career crossroads, and relationship concerns.
Her background includes work with adults, adolescents, children, families, and group settings, and she has experience as a care manager. Her sessions are described by plain talk and focused plans. She individualizes conversations and treatment steps to match each person’s goals and needs.
That often means combining skill practice, reflective writing, and short-term behavioral tasks. The counseling relationship is treated as a professional partnership based on respect and clear boundaries. Contact outside of sessions is limited to what is needed for treatment.
Jamesetter aims to help people build more steady, harmonious daily life and supports practical steps toward that goal.

Narrative Therapy in this listing

Online session options
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Jamesetter uses Narrative therapy to help people look at the stories they tell about their lives and identify alternative, more helpful narratives. That approach can be useful for people feeling stuck by labels or past events and wanting a different perspective on their problems.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action even when uncomfortable feelings are present. ACT is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to notice patterns of thought that feed mood and behavior and to test small behavioral changes that lead to clearer results.
Choosing the right method is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. From there she will suggest approaches to try and adjust the plan as work progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat fits quick check-ins, and messaging supports brief ongoing contact or daily skill practice. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between sessions.
