About Colette

Colette Junod helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and major life changes. She also offers coaching and support for compassion fatigue and caregiver stress. Colette is a licensed clinical social worker, LCSW, and brings 15 years of experience to her practice in Virginia.

She approaches each person with respect and sensitivity. Conversations are shaped to the needs of the individual rather than a fixed script. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings and clear goals to track progress.

Background and approach

Colette tailors the plan to the client's situation. That can mean short-term coaching-style work for career or role transitions, or steadier support for processing traumatic events. She pays attention to communication patterns and the strain of caretaking when those are part of the problem.

Her style is direct but warm. She aims to make the room feel calm and focused so the client can talk about hard things without feeling judged. Colette encourages small experiments and new habits that fit into daily life.

For people feeling isolated or unsure where to start, she offers straightforward guidance to clarify values and purpose. Her background includes helping professionals manage work stress as well as supporting those recovering from post-traumatic stress. Sessions are offered in English and available to international clients via online formats.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Colette lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Online support

Therapeutic options and online care

Colette uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical outcomes. One common approach is trauma-focused work that helps people process distressing memories and learn coping skills to reduce their impact on daily life. This approach is useful for those with post-traumatic stress or past abuse.

Another emphasis is coaching-oriented therapy that targets life transitions and professional stress. That style breaks big changes into manageable steps, setting clear goals and homework to try between sessions. It suits people who want concrete strategies for decision making, communication, or finding purpose.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Colette will discuss goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up to decide what to try first. Plans can shift over time as needs change and progress is reviewed together.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different situations. Video allows real-time conversation and visual cues, phone can be lower bandwidth, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make therapy more flexible for people with busy schedules, travel constraints, or varying comfort with being on camera.
