(she/her)
Welcome! I am licensed to provide therapy in the states of North Carolina and Florida. I have 6+ years experience as a therapist and 10+ years experience working in the mental health field. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and Mindfulness-Based strategies. My approach to therapy is warm and collaborative. My goal is to support each client in easing anxiety, quieting self-doubt, and building a more grounded and compassionate relationship with themselves. Currently, services are only being offered online via a HIPAA compliant Telehealth platform.
Together we'll explore ways to quiet the self-doubt, ease anxiety, and build emotional resilience in a way that feels safe and supportive. My treatment style is rooted in a person centered approach where the client’s strengths and interests are identified and utilized. The first session includes an intake assessment to help us understand your history, current concerns, and supports.
I believe therapy works best in a space that feels safe, supportive, and free of judgment, where clients can show up as themselves. I especially connect with clients who feel things deeply, become overstimulated easily, or are learning how to better understand and express their emotions. My style is warm, down to earth, and sometimes playful, which helps clients feel more comfortable opening up and learning new ways to cope. I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel heard, understood, and supported.
I enjoy working with children, teens, and young adults. I especially connect with clients who feel deeply, become overwhelmed easily, or are learning to better understand their emotions. Whether supporting you or your child, I believe in creating a safe and supportive space while tailoring treatment to each individual's unique needs. I provide trauma-informed care to help clients move forward from difficult experiences and build healthier ways of coping.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Clients are encouraged to explore the relationship of their thoughts to their feelings and behaviors. “All limits exist in the mind, and it is only in the mind that they can be overcome”. - Alan Cohen
EMDR
I completed EMDR training through EMDRIA in 2022. EMDR works to heal the emotions, thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that occur after experiencing a traumatic event.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness is used throughout therapy in combination with other modalities. Mindfulness is about paying attention to the present moment as opposed to the internal and external chaos that can occur on a day to day basis.

Janae is amazing at her job. Our sessions feel like a conversation with a friend. I would recommend her to anyone. She challenges me and my thoughts, in the best way! Book her.
