About MJ

Dr. "MJ" Mignon Jambon is a Licensed Professional Counselor with two decades of clinical experience in Texas.

Background and approach

She approaches therapy as a shared process, working side by side with each person to define practical goals and steps toward change. She emphasizes clear communication, punctuality, and making sure clients leave sessions with usable skills.

She draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas to look at how thoughts and actions keep problems going. She also uses attachment-focused perspectives to understand relationship patterns and the Gottman Method to address interactional habits.

When helpful, she adds mindfulness and dialectical strategies to build emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Dr.

Jambon has worked across many roles, including time as a university professor, and brings that breadth to clinical work. Her practice covers stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and parenting concerns.

She also addresses more specific issues such as abandonment, blended family challenges, chronic illness or pain, and first responder stress. Her sessions combine listening with practical skill-building.

She encourages people to try strategies between meetings so they can see change sooner. Spiritual beliefs and cultural background are invited into the work when clients want to include them.

People who look for a steady, punctual clinician who will not rush them often find her approach helpful. She aims to be respectful, direct, and compassionate while helping clients make measurable progress.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Dr. Jambon uses approaches such as the Gottman Method to look at relationship interaction patterns and Attachment-Based Therapy to understand how early bonds shape current behavior. The Gottman-oriented work focuses on communication habits and small, practical changes in how partners talk and respond. Attachment-focused work helps people identify patterns of closeness and distance that affect stress and conflict.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which examines how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and introduces concrete skills to change them. Together, these methods are used in a collaborative way: the therapist and client work as a team to choose what fits best for the person's goals and life circumstances.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skill practice, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is low or you need a shorter check-in, and chat or messaging can support regular tracking and brief coaching between sessions. These options let clients maintain continuity of care across time zones and life changes while still working with licensed professionals.
