Getting to know Janelle Gervais

Hi there! My name is Janelle Gervais, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Sacramento, CA, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I hold a Master's in Clinical Psychology from the University of Massachusetts Global and a Bachelor's degree from California State University, Sacramento. I work with adults, adolescents, children, and family systems, specializing in treating trauma, addiction, depression/anxiety, family conflict, and parenting/behavior management from a humanistic person-centered approach. I am trained in a variety of treatment modalities, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT), Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), and Alternatives for Families Cognitive Behavior Therapy (AF-CBT), which allow me to build genuine connections with my clients and offer a multitude of tools to help them heal and meet their goals. My approach My approach to therapy is based first and foremost on building a genuine connection and relationship with my clients grounded in compassion and the recognition that therapy can be both an exciting and sometimes terrifying journey. I draw on my training in various treatment modalities to ensure we have the most effective tools at our disposal to find what works best. These include DBT, TF-CBT, PCIT, and AF-CBT. My focus With over ten years of experience working with clients aged 0-21, I am very comfortable supporting children, families, and adolescents across a broad spectrum-from developmental disorders and ADHD to depression, anxiety, and the search for and creation of one's identity. I also have a strong focus on trauma and addiction with my adult clients, often viewing both through a growth-based and existential lens. My communication style I believe in creating an environment that feels authentic, flows naturally, and isn't afraid to include humor. My communication style is warm, genuine, and down-to-earth.
