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.

I know many therapist come with a case load of clients and I think Janet does a great job remembering my situation and giving me the solid advice and reassurance. I feel like she is pretty genuine.
