Hey there, I'm Janell! Do you feel pulled and you feel like you just need someone to talk to, someone, that will listen? Are you having difficulty identifying the root of the problem and feeling alone in the process? Helping others is what I do and together, we can identify problem areas and bounce back to the beautiful creature you were born to be. Sometimes, it takes a little processing to get down to the nitty gritty and some basic honesty from ourselves and others. People often tell me, I have a kind smile and a big heart. That's what you'll get from me. We'll use a person-centered approach to address your needs and learn new skills to help build resiliency, to better manage the stressors of life and/or get through depression, anxiety and/or grief issues. Let's face it, life can be difficult and I'm here to help. Shoot, we all need some help at some point and time in our lives. Getting help can sometimes cause us to feel uncertain, however, you know when something is good for you. And good counsel is good! Having a safe place to heal and grow is healthy. I prefer to work with individuals over the age of 14 however, I will consider little ones over the age of 6 when necessary. When we meet, my goal is to extend acceptance, and compassion to you by utilizing evidence-based treatment that will help cultivate change in your life. Let's get started.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
What you can expect from me after the first session is a sense of relief that you’ve connected with someone relatable and that can help. Moving forward we will work together to express the problems, identify potential root causes, ways to manage and skills for the future. After we’ve worked together for a while, and you’ve applied skills learned you’ll walk away with confidence and more energy for the future.
