Janette Shallal, LMSW, LMFT
About me
I have been a therapist for 35 years working with adults and families. I have extensive experience working with adults who struggle with chronic and persistent mental illness (i.e.Bipolar disorder, schizophrenia. schizo affective disorder, depression, anxiety disorder and eating disorders. parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. Also I helped people who have experienced physical trauma, emotional and physical abuse.
I am also a marriage and family licensed therapist, my counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with care and respect, sensitivity and compassion and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psycho-dynamic and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. You and I will determine the plan in which we will work together to insure the most effective outcome for you.
It takes courage to take the first step towards change and I will be available to help in any way I can to support and empower you.
Hope to hear from you soon.
