More about Janelle
- 2 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
My therapeutic style is warm, inquisitive, and collaborative, with a little humor mixed in. I draw from CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed approaches, weaving in mindfulness, creativity, and natural conversation. Whether we explore through journaling, art, or meaningful dialogue, my goal is to help you connect more deeply with yourself. I’ve had the privilege of working with culturally diverse individuals in both correctional and community settings, which has strengthened my belief that healing looks different for everyone—and that’s exactly how it should be.
