Hi, I’m Jenn. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been working as a therapist since 2002. Many of the people I work with are used to being the strong one . The one others rely on. On the outside, you may look like you have everything together, but internally you might feel overwhelmed, stuck, or constantly second guessing yourself. You may be managing the stress of work, relationships, parenting, or a life transition that feels harder than you expected. At some point, coping and pushing through just isn’t enough anymore. Therapy can be a space where you don’t have to hold everything together. Where you can slow down, process what you’re carrying, and reconnect with who you are and what you need. I work with adults navigating anxiety, relationship and attachment challenges, grief and loss, infertility, parenthood and identity shifts, midlife transitions, and perinatal/postpartum emotional health. My approach is deeply client-centered and relationship-focused. I believe meaningful change happens when you feel safe enough to be honest about what’s really going on without judgment or pressure. Together, we’ll make sense of your experiences, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and build practical, sustainable ways to help you feel more grounded, confident, and emotionally steady. I know it takes courage to reach out for support. If you’re here, you’ve already taken an important first step. I look forward to meeting you and working together toward the change you’re ready for.

I will never be upset or feel inconvenienced by your need to cancel or reschedule, even at the last minute. On a separate note completely, I don’t typically feel comfortable completing paperwork, such as FMLA, short-term disability, etc. for clients. I look forward to working with you!

My initial goal is to actively listen as client expresses what is most important to them and offer compassion and most importantly be sure the client is seen and heard while developing a genuine and authentic rapport.

Interventions are tailored to each client’s needs, goals, and lived experience. My work is grounded in these core beliefs: • People are doing the best they can with the skills they have. • People are capable of change. • People do get better. • A strong therapeutic relationship creates safety, healing, and growth. To maximize the benefits of therapy, I may offer practical between-session exercises to help clients apply skills in daily life. These are always collaborative and adjusted as needed.

Imagine life is like a journey you control entirely, but you feel stuck. The choices you make dictate the obstacles you face, and they can be tricky. Life’s journey comes with no instruction pamphlet or ready-made companions. A path unfolds, and you can trust that guidance is available along the way. As you journey, you begin to see things you want, potential companions, places you want to explore, and tools you can use to make travel simpler. There are so many choices to make, with no time to stop and contemplate the best decision; you have to keep going, making choices every day about everything. Decisions and deadlines do not wait, but support is here to help you navigate. The consequences of decisions do not wait for preparation or readiness. Age does not determine how hard life can be, nor does it assess reality. Whether you are age 5 or 95, waking up each day and continuing life’s journey can be challenging. Seeking support can make this journey easier, and I am here to help you through it. I believe life’s tools are within us: self-actualization, self-trust, coping strategies, and the willingness to grow. This can foster hope and reassurance for toddlers, children, adolescents, adults, families, and the LGBTQIAPK community. Online Counseling Services are available upon request.

My name is Janet Muta and I am a Licensed Clinician with over 17 years of experience in mental health, behavioral issues and relationships. I treat individuals from diverse backgrounds. My approach is treating the whole person because most of the time our problems are the outcome of more than just one thing and when I get to know you I am able to address different issues that could be contributing to that one specific problem. We all experience some difficulties in our lives sometimes and we all cope differently. What works for one person/couple who are experiencing a similar situation may not work for another and so I personalize your treatment to fit you. Being in therapy is like being on a journey, I make sure you are in the driver’s seat and I become your great working GPS, guiding you to your desired destination.
