Therapeutic Approach

Have you ever felt like some days are just harder to face than others? Is it because of painful memories from your past; thoughts that are continuously playing over and over again in your mind; or the constant feeling of being overwhelmed by the everyday stressors of life? This can make daily functioning very difficult. Sometimes we all need a little help sorting through our thoughts and feelings. This is a safe place where we can explore your needs by using tools to help move away from the pain, darkness, fear, or shame and transition into the light, serenity, and hope that you are searching for.

It is important to find a therapist who uses a therapeutic approach that fits with your own personal beliefs. Janel believes her clients are the experts of their own lives and she is simply here to guide them on their journey. Janel adapts each treatment plan to the specific needs of her clients and together realistic goals are determined.
