My career has enabled me to work with a variety of populations in the mental health field. My work is rewarding and feels more like a calling than a job. My goal is to provide my clients support and provide a safe space for them to express themselves. I listen and I care. Together we collaborate to create an individualized treatment plan to address your specific concerns. I make myself available, I’m flexible, and I am invested in your growth.

My treatment methods

Humanistic

The humanistic therapist looks at the whole person, focusing on their positive traits and potential to grow. Together we focus on developing person and their instincts. Over time their development helps them heal, grow and find their own wisdom. My hope is that we are both postively impacted by the relationship, no matter the duration. My goal is to focus on solutions first, and improving our responses over time.

In the short time (~3 weeks?) we've been working together I can tell that Janet is enthused about working with me, and dedicated to my growth. She often continues thru the last minute of our session (even sometimes over) which is always a fantastic sign that she's dedicated and committed to seeing me progress. I feel I've already made some great strides! Grateful I found and started working with her, thanks Janet!

There is something sacred about the therapy space - Janet gets that. Just by being who she is - authentic, kind, down-to-earth - she really makes space for me to just lay it all out without judgement. Authentic and non-judgmental spaces can be a challenge to find and to trust. And so I am so grateful to work with Janet at a time when life is heavy.
