Great to meet you!

Hola! My name is Janette. In addition to mental wellness, my passion is social justice. As a first generation American, Latina, and member of the LBGTQIA+ community, I enjoy providing a safe therapeutic space for members of underrepresented communities.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My typical clients are QTPOC/BIPOC with a history of with trauma, issues with confidence, self-esteem, depression, relationship troubles, and anxiety. They are typically ages 18 to 50 yrs old.

While respecting the feelings of my clients and the adversity they face, I use humor in my practice, always with a tender approach. I try not to take myself too seriously and find that self-compassion and laughter are often incredibly healing.

What you can expect from our first session

After the first session, I want you to feel hopeful about the big step you took. Overtime, we can discover, connect & heal old hurts that may be affecting your present & create a greater understanding, deeper love, & strong appreciation for the person you are today. We'll tune into your body where trauma is often held. I hope to help you enhance your problem-solving skills; fine-tune your thinking patterns; compassionately learn from mistakes; & set goals, feeling empowered all along the way.
