Janine is an independently licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. She approaches mental health treatment from a family systems perspective which looks at individuals as being part of a larger social system which can influence their beliefs, behaviors and emotional experiences. Sometimes symptoms are the product of a problematic family system or other social system that is causing stress for the individual. Janine enjoys working with children, adolescents, and adults, who struggle with anxiety, depression, impulsive behavior, problematic sexual behaviors (children/adolescents only), challenging relationships, abusive relationships and grief. She uses play therapy and art therapy techniques when appropriate. She also leads a divorce support group in the community for those facing, going through, or recently completing the divorce process.
