Janer Muelle

My communication style

My approach is calm and non-judgmental, creating a safe space for you to share your feelings. I remain an active listener while gently identifying negative beliefs and long-held narratives, being real and honest throughout. There will be times I may not get it right, and I welcome your feedback so you feel validated and understood.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always been in the helping profession. While working in a hospital setting, I sought therapy to navigate my own family relationships. During a difficult transition, I discovered social work through a colleague's encouragement, which aligned perfectly with my goal of helping others.

My goals for you

For therapy to be effective, there has to be trust between us. I listen carefully to understand your unique challenges and help you identify and prioritize your concerns. We'll set goals together in the first sessions and work on one or two at a time, focusing on what's most important to you.

Our first session

We will spend most of our time getting to know one another while talking about how you have been feeling recently. I'll ask questions to better understand your reason for seeking therapy, the life events that influenced you, and your feelings about those experiences. My goal is to listen and tailor your therapy experience to what you're seeking.
