I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 18 years experience. My degrees and license have afforded me the opportunity to work with individuals, couples, adolescents, children and families. I have worked with clients who were experiencing numerous issues including but not limited to family dynamic issues, marital issues, couples issues, intimacy issues, infidelity, infertility, parenting issues, communication barriers, career choices, anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, grief, self esteem issues, self harm, disordered eating, substance abuse, trauma, PTSD, sexual/physical/emotional abuse, divorce and co parenting. My counseling style is best described as warm, direct, collaborative, empowering and TRANSFORMATIVE. If we work together we will absolutely create the change that you have been seeking in your life. Typically I draw from counseling styles rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Family Therapy. However, Therapy is not a “one size fits all” practice, in fact it is just the opposite and this is why most often I will utilize Eclectic Therapy. I will adjust my counseling methods based on your issues in each session and I will also adjust them as you begin to change and grow. A skilled Therapist needs to be fluid in their approach because change is not stagnant. I am already proud of you for taking the first step in your journey to peace and happiness. If you chose me as your Therapist I want you to know that I will always respect your journey and the vulnerability and bravery that it takes to create lasting change in your life. I would be honored to assist you on your path and I look forward to our work together. Be well, Jannine
