About Nenette

Nenette Keenan is a licensed marriage and family therapist with ten years of clinical experience. She is licensed in Louisiana and North Carolina and helps people who are carrying stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or relationship strain.

Background and approach

She meets clients where they are and respects each person's strengths and story. Nenette focuses on building practical skills and clearer communication.

Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. She uses strategies drawn from evidence-based approaches to help people manage strong emotions and improve daily functioning.

Her work often centers on attachment patterns and how past losses or abandonment shape current behavior. She also supports people facing blended family adjustments, caregiver stress, and separation or divorce.

Topics such as codependency, control struggles, and body image are addressed directly and without judgment. Nenette blends methods from Gottman Method, cognitive behavioral therapy, emotionally-focused work, and client-centered therapy to tailor each plan.

She may include trauma-focused tools when past abuse or overwhelming memories are part of the picture. The process aims to make feelings easier to name and choices clearer.

People who prefer a straightforward, collaborative approach tend to fit well with her style. She encourages small steps, practical coping skills, and improved communication.

Taking that first step is hard, and she acknowledges the courage it takes to begin.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional habits. Online sessions help identify these patterns, name the feelings they create, and practice new ways of relating in everyday life. Gottman Method offers clear tools for improving communication and reducing conflict in close relationships. In remote sessions those skills are taught through role practice, structured exercises, and feedback that clients can try between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then choose methods together. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust techniques as progress is made or needs change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for role practice and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text is helpful for quick check-ins or brief skill practice. These options make scheduling more flexible and allow therapy to fit into busy days or long-distance situations.
