“After seeing about 3 therapists and feeling defeated, ready to give up, I finally met Janet a couple of years ago. I cannot say enough good things about her. She has truly changed and improved so much of my life. She is so insightful, wise, and patient. She is an incredible listener and she impressively remembers every little detail I share to circle back and connect the dots. I wish everyone had a Janet in their life to help unpack/navigate their emotions; the world would be a better place.”

“She is very attentive. Her ability to listen and hear what is actually being said vs. what I am saying to myself for protection. She sees through the issues and is able to find the reality and reason. Very good therapist.”

Getting to know Janet Stevens
I am a clinical social worker (LCSW) with ten years of experience helping individuals and families cope with life stressors and navigate more complicated problems. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Sacramento. I frequently work with clients who experience anxiety, depression, intense emotions, or overwhelming stress, as well as those facing issues related to substance use, legal challenges, or other behavioral concerns. I firmly believe that you are the expert in your own life, whatever the situation. My role is to provide support, offer new perspectives, and engage in collaborative problem-solving to help you reach your goals. My therapy toolbox includes positive, strengths-based strategies grounded in mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and cognitive behavior therapy. Working with me, you will find a warm and welcoming space to explore the issues that keep you “stuck” – and the understanding and acceptance necessary to begin making lasting changes in your life.

I absolutely love Janet. She has been a profound help and support system for me as I navigate some very difficult situations and family conflicts/struggles. She not only offers constructive feedback she also offers a wise ear where she educates me on better communication and how to effectively understand my own needs and feelings which can feel confusing at times. I can’t recommend her enough.

What I like about Janet is she is fair and unbias. Janet not just listen but understands the concerns and then problem solve the issues together. Creates a space for fair judgment and constructive discussion. Celebrates achievement and empathize when necessary. Janet seem experienced with problematic dynamic and persisting behavior in a couple. I recommend Janet that she is willing to work through the problem wether you like it or not.

My therapist has been the most incredible support. I went on the search for a therapist when I was in a very difficult place and she provided me with key support and guidance to manage everything going on. Now I’m regulated and feeling confident with a toolbox full of strategies. I still seeing her regularly and we are working on life transitions, communication skills, and self compassion. So grateful!

Janet allows me to speak and asks questions from a perspective of curiosity. She is completely without judgement and has offered several practical solutions to my anxiety issues. I particularly like when she tells me what it is that I'm describing. When she does that, it is reassuring because it is something other people must have experienced enough to put a label on.

I've had many years of experience in therapy and this is the best match I've had so far. Janet really sees and hears everything I have to say and helps me process everything I bring to the table, including unhelpful thoughts and difficult feelings. I feel like we are completely on the same page and feel really safe and hopeful in our sessions. Couldn't ask for a better fit, and am beyond grateful for her.
