My name is Janae, and I am a Limited License Social Worker. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Benedictine University and Master’s degree in Social Work from the Brown School at Washington University in St. Louis.

I believe that there are many components that make up every one of us. By recognizing and addressing mental, physical, social, and spiritual health, one can move towards a whole and healthy life.

I have a passion for helping clients identify, engage with, and follow their values. Together we develop a space for self-reflection, growth as a unique individual, and build lasting and sustainable change that will help you live a value-centered life.

I take a holistic approach and utilize perspectives such as Humanistic, ACT, Strengths-based, and Mindfulness to address depression, anxiety, stress, self-esteem, life transitions, and other mental health issues. In addition, I work with athletes experiencing sports performance related issues.

My work is highly collaborative and involves exploring values, personal needs, motivation, goals, and ambivalence.

My goal is to walk with you on your journey towards healing in whichever direction is best for you..
