About Jeronda
Dr. Jeronda Golston is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and problems related to addiction and trauma.
Dr. Golston meets clients where they are and shapes conversations to fit each person's needs. Her approach is practical and straightforward.
She listens without judgment and works with clients to set clear, achievable goals. Sessions often include tools to handle anger, impulsivity, and low self-esteem.
Background and approach
She also supports people navigating relationship challenges, abandonment wounds, infidelity, and young adult transitions. Dr. Golston uses techniques drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
Mindfulness practices are offered to reduce reactivity and build calm. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone wants help with changing addictive behaviors. She has experience addressing trauma, including sexual assault and post-traumatic stress, and offers care for those facing hospice or end-of-life concerns and aging-related stress.
Her work with family problems centers on helping individuals cope with difficult family dynamics rather than running family therapy sessions. People who prefer a respectful, compassionate style tend to do well with her. She emphasizes collaboration and practical steps you can use between sessions.
Starting therapy is framed as a process - Dr. Golston helps clients find what fits, then adjusts the plan as needed.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on what matters most to you and builds small actions toward those values, which can help with stress, anxiety, and depression.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. In sessions clients learn practical skills to challenge unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety or manage mood and impulses.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Then she will suggest strategies and adjust them based on feedback so the plan fits the client’s life.
Online therapy offers several ways to connect: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging let people send updates or brief reflections between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel, and keep momentum between sessions.
