Hi there, I'm Janet!

I prefer the informal first-name approach, so please call me Jan. I'm drawn to Family Systems Theory because it honors both individual and relationship dynamics. I work with people navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and self-esteem issues.

My focus

My ideal client brings curiosity about themselves to therapy and is motivated to explore their thoughts and feelings with readiness to take action. I serve as a partner in this collaborative process, sharing strategies that empower you to choose options for personal growth.

My approach

I use a person-centered approach to help you harness your strengths and develop effective coping mechanisms. I believe in providing sufficient time for you to discover your personal pace through the therapeutic process, empowering you to navigate life's challenges.
