Session Type: Chill Therapy

I am so thankful to have met Jeannette as my first therapist. I’ve read online that it is often hard to find the right therapist from the get-go but I could click with Jeannette since our very first session! She always creates a safe nurturing space for me to share my concerns without any fear of judgment, so it has not been difficult for me to open up to her. She is also a great listener who just “gets it” and I always feel seen and understood during our sessions.

I am not sure what “magic” Jeannette does but I often leave sessions with new perspectives on my problems, which has been so insightful and beneficial. I also appreciate that she makes the time to assign me homework (because work done outside of therapy is just as important as therapy itself)! It’s been 11 sessions of therapy and the impact it has had on me is immense.

I’ve learnt so much from Jeannette, ranging from techniques to cope with my struggles, to developing a deeper understanding of myself. Mostly importantly, she helped me realise over time that I am stronger and more capable than I give myself credit for. Thank you Jeannette!

Really appreciate all the support that I have received from Jeannette during a difficult period of my life – she really helped me to organize the chaos in my head with various life-altering events happening at the same time to help me get to a point where I could slowly digest everything that was happening, recognize how I felt about things and figure out how I wanted to react.

She was very patient with me through this process, and her open, non-judgemental and friendly approach allowed me to open up to her and allow the process to happen – I’m still working through the process, but I feel a lot more empowered and focused on what is important now – and I’m so grateful that I went through this process with her.

Thank you very much Jeannette.

My journey with Jeannette through counselling is the most profound and transformative experience I’ve ever had. From the cozy confines of meeting rooms, she helped me explore the universe within me. We began with preparation, like adventurers setting out into the unknown, to make sure I had the mental fitness and safety measures before exploring uncharted emotional landscapes. There was no map, no timetable, because this journey wasn’t about reaching a destination. It was about the experience of discovery, of feeling, of being. Jeannette has been my guide, showering me the beauty within and around me. At times, she was like a distant North Star, shining from afar, gently pointing the way. Other times, she rode with me, sailed with me, flew with me, diving and paragliding through the peaks and valleys of my inner world. Always with kindness, empathy and encouragement.

This journey has awakened something within me – a deeper awareness, a more conscious way of living. I’ve learned how to truly connect with my emotions and to be in touch with the feelings of others. More importantly, I’ve learned how to take care of myself mentally, and in doing so, how to better care for the people around me. There’s still so much more to explore, but I am embracing this newfound understanding with gratitude, curiosity and love.

Very simply, I want to thank you.

When I was searching for a therapist and came across Jeannette’s profile, something just clicked.. I intuitively knew I wanted to work with her.

From the moment I stepped into that first session, I had a good feeling that something positive would come out of it. Over the course of five months, even though it was just eight sessions and about ten hours in total, the journey we shared was truly meaningful.

Jeannette created a safe space for me to express myself, and in that space, she helped me reconnect with my authentic self. Her support, encouragement, and guidance through tough emotions and challenges made all the difference.

Thank you for being my cheerleader and helping me navigate this process. I’m grateful for the journey we’ve had so far, and I know it’s not the end.

Counselling has greatly improved my ability to cope with anxiety. Jeannette is patient and understanding in helping me with my issues and she is very knowledgeable as well. She is able to listen to my problems without judgement and provide me with useful advice to cope with them. Overall a pleasant experience.

Session Type: Chill Workshop

I attended a Strengths Workshop that Jeannette had conducted at Republic Polytechnic where she instilled a changed perspective in the way we see and what we know about strengths. The workshop made me realise the importance of not only working on our weaknesses but also the strengths that we had already acquired in our daily lives.

What I really loved was how engaging she was throughout the entire workshop by constantly encouraging and giving each of us the chance to share our own experiences and views. She also explained everything well. Despite the workshop being after school, I felt energised the entire time just by participating and listening to her 🙂

Furthermore, she had set a 14-day challenge for us to do if we wanted to and she did and continued with the challenge together. Sometimes, she even replied to what we had written to encourage and motivate us further. That challenge gave me the habit of reflecting on my day and feeling accomplished when I noticed how I use my strengths to help myself grow and also help the people around me everyday.

Also, since I knew Jeannette before the workshop itself through her TikTok Chillbynette and being a part of her Chill Community, Jeannette has helped me out a lot and I feel that both in person and online, she gave the same awesome vibe! 😀

Jeannette has been very accommodating and goes the extra mile to make me feel extremely comfortable during the sessions.

My experience with Jeannette was really wonderful, she takes time to listen about my issues and experiences in sessions, apologise if she did any wrong, and change methodology if needed. Really knowledgeable and friendly.

Ms Jeannette had went above and beyond while I was in therapy sessions with her. I was initially apprehensive about starting therapy but she had created an environment which made me feel extremely safe and comfortable in sharing with her my thoughts and experiences outside of therapy. She was very welcoming and I felt no judgement from her whatsoever. I had managed to pick up plenty of skills that I can utilize outside of therapy from her. I will be continuing my therapy sessions with Ms Jeannette and I highly recommend her to anyone who would like to start therapy 🙂

Session Type: Chill Community

I’ve been following Jeannette’s Chill By Nette for a while now, and I’m consistently impressed by her approach. She adeptly discusses #selfawareness, #grounding, and #emotionalregulation through bite-sized videos that are accessible to anyone. Her content exudes a laid-back, modest, and homey feel, instantly putting audiences at ease.

One particular video that stands out to me is “What do you do when things start to get overwhelming.” As a creative educator, I frequently encounter young professionals in the creative field who struggle with feelings of overwhelm and the risk of burnout. What they don’t need is a know-it-all offering motivational speeches.

When a Chill by Nette video appears in my feed, it’s always a welcome reprieve. Jeannette’s content provides a refreshing break from the usual noise.

Thanks CBN and the close community for this challenge. Although I had joined late something that I learnt from previous challenges, AMAs, chill circles is to prioritize my own wellbeing over other things. Over the past few months I have decluttered my digital processes, limited my information intake from social media (hence my absence from the AMAs) held my space and basically put myself first which was something that was really difficult for me to do the last time. I am grateful for the community for reading my sharings, cheering me on with your emoticons.

CBN, this is a really nice and cozy community that you’ve created and I am grateful for all of your sharings as well, or just by being here, you have shown your support. So thank you.

Thanks @Chillbynette for organizing the challenge. I personally enjoyed it throughly – primarily for reflecting on my own and what I wanted for the day and secondly for reading other people’s challenge. Finally, I have picked up a healthy habit. 

I am so grateful to everyone in this group chat for motivating me to be part of this challenge. 

I have enjoyed it so much that I am going to keep on and noting down my desires for each day in my journal. I feel it’s a healthy habit to pick up. 

May all of you have a great month of January. 🙏
