JF Counseling, a practice founded by licensed clinical social worker Jane Fineberg, has been voted the Best Mental Health Provider in Summit County in the 2025 Best of Summit contest. Fineberg expanded her private therapy practice to a group practice during the COVID-19 pandemic when she had 100 people on her waitlist. Several years later, JF Counseling now houses eight clinicians who serve 260 active patients and is dedicated to offering “compassionate therapy for individuals, couples, and families.”
Services and Therapeutic Approach
The practice provides support for a range of issues including stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and relational counseling. JF Counseling employs a relationship-based, psychodynamic therapeutic style and provides Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a psychotherapy treatment designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories, along with EMDR consultation. The aim is to help people discover the root cause of whatever they are struggling with and help clients grow in self-reliance. According to Fineberg, long-term therapy is still a healthy option, but she is happy when clients “become dispensable.”
Community Partnerships and Support
The practice serves people both in their Frisco office and through Telehealth. JF Counseling partners with groups like Building Hope to provide free services. These include the New Moms Support Group staffed by a JF Counseling clinician as well as a lactation consultant and registered dietitian. Weekly group meetings, including Moments of Mindfulness Stress Reduction Group and Growing Us: Skills for Improved Communication & Connection for Couples, are free through partnerships with Building Hope and Summit County Public Health. Fineberg emphasizes that her office functions as a hub for the community—if JF Counseling cannot serve a caller’s needs, they will connect them to someone who can. The practice also welcomes clinicians-in-training and encourages staff members to work toward the highest level of professional development possible to serve their community.
