Janett Berumen, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Janett!

Recognizing we need support during heavy seasons in our life is a huge step that takes great courage and vulnerability. I aim to support you in building on your strengths, skills, and resiliency to navigate these seasons so that you can live a purposeful life.

My focus

I work with individuals seeking to gain a better understanding of their life, its influence on them, and ways they would like to grow through the current season they are in. Whether it's struggles with self-worth, daily stressors, life transitions, grief/loss, or relationship challenges, my goal is to support you through your healing journey.

My approach

I work from a client-centered, compassion-based, trauma-informed, somatic, and culturally sensitive approach. I also utilize Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM), DBT, and CBT to provide you with effective and tangible tools as you navigate through the heaviest seasons in life.

My communication style

I am warm, compassionate, caring, nonjudgmental, and respectful. I strive to create an environment where you feel safe, heard, seen, understood, supported, and empowered, to continue to foster vulnerability, honesty transparency, and growth.

My journey to mental healthcare

My personal experience with those in the helping profession through some of the heaviest seasons in my life is what inspired me to become a therapist. My work in community mental health for the past 10+ years has deepened my passion for mental health and has allowed me to find great purpose in supporting others as they heal and grow.

My goals for you

I use a collaborative approach in identifying your current needs, challenges, and what a purposeful life means to you. Together, we will establish realistic, observable, and measurable goals based on what you wish to gain and achieve from therapy.

Our first session

We'll reflect on your great courage and vulnerability in seeking support, as this is often one of the hardest steps. I review confidentiality limits to foster transparency and a safe space. I inquire on what brings you in, current challenges, life history, and existing strengths, to build rapport and learn how I can best support you in treatment.
