Meet Janet

My professional interests include helping individual clients navigate family dynamics, relationship challenges, trauma, depression, anxiety, multiculturalism, immigration, social justice, and life adjustments. I work exclusively with individuals and do not provide couples or family therapy, though we can explore how family and relationship dynamics impact your personal well-being. I’m passionate about providing culturally competent care in a safe, warm, and confidential environment. With 10 years of experience as a licensed clinician, I’m committed to partnering with you to achieve your individual goals!

We all have hurdles to overcome and I'm honored to walk alongside those who entrust me be a part of their journey.
