My name is Janell, and I want to start by acknowledging your courage in seeking support. Prioritizing mental health and self-care can feel daunting, especially in a world where stigma around psychology still exists. However, I want to assure you that therapy with me will never feel like "head shrinking"—I am deeply passionate about what I do and committed to creating a safe, supportive space for healing.

I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and self-care practices to help individuals heal and regain a sense of wholeness. Building a strong therapeutic rapport is essential, as trust, openness, and understanding form the foundation of meaningful progress in therapy. My approach is person-centered, ensuring that each session is a collaborative and healing experience tailored to your unique needs.

Recognizing an individual’s level of readiness is key to fostering impactful, lasting change. My experience primarily involves working with teens and adults, utilizing evidence-based modalities such as mindfulness-based stress reduction, meditation, cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution-focused therapy.

I look forward to meeting you and working together toward your goal of emotional well-being.
