I have done therapy in the past and not always had the best experience. Janel has made these sessions by far the best and most productive I’ve experienced. She is knowledgeable and professional. She has helped me to work towards and reach the goals that I set for myself with her guidance.
VERIFIED PATIENT TESTIMONIAL

Hi there, I'm Janel!

Hi, I’m Janel, a licensed clinical social worker with nearly 20 years of experience. I’m a fourth-generation Japanese American in a biracial marriage and a parent. I’ve worked with diverse clients, helping them navigate challenges and find contentment and inner peace.

My focus

I work with adults contemplating change in their lives. I want to meet you where you are, even if you're not ready for major shifts. I'm here to help you explore your thoughts without judgment. You know yourself best, and my role is to support your authentic path forward.

My approach

Through the years, I've had the chance to utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches. With that said, my approach is best described as person center and eclectic with you and your needs in mind. Often, our internal dialogue is the problem. However, let's meet and talk about what might work best for you!
