About Jean-Marie
Rev. Jean-Marie Schweizer is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and life changes. He uses approachable language and an emphasis on each person’s story to guide conversations.
He balances spiritual and secular perspectives when clients request that, and he brings years of pastoral experience to the work. Schweizer draws on a mix of humanistic and narrative thinking. He treats clients as the experts on their own lives and looks for where meaning and values matter most.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters to the client now and on practical next steps that fit daily life. He also includes ideas from Internal Family Systems to notice different parts of a person’s inner life and how they interact. That can help with impulsivity, self-criticism, caregiving stress, and compassion fatigue.
He adapts tools from other approaches when they seem useful for a specific concern. Schweizer holds a Master of Divinity and a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling, and he is currently pursuing a doctorate in counselor education and supervision. He has five years as a licensed counselor in Texas and over 25 years of pastoral work.
Those combined experiences shape a calm, reflective style that is both practical and open to spiritual questions when clients wish to include them. People who work with him can expect a collaborative tone rather than being told what to do. He invites clients to tell their stories, notice strengths, and try manageable changes that fit their goals and everyday routines.

Online session options
Using Narrative and Humanistic Approaches Online
Rev. Jean-Marie Schweizer often draws on Narrative Therapy and Client-Centered (humanistic) approaches in online work. Narrative Therapy helps people look at the stories they tell about themselves and the choices within those stories; it is useful for relationship patterns, self-esteem, and finding new directions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the client’s lead, which supports exploring values, life purpose, and decision-making.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit what you want to accomplish. That decision is collaborative and may change as therapy unfolds.
Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counseling fit real life. Video calls let you talk face to face; phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and easier during a busy day. Live chat or text sessions provide shorter check-ins and written reflection when that format fits your routine. These options aim to make it easier to keep regular sessions while balancing work, caregiving, or travel.
