Getting to know Janette Rushing

Hi there, I'm Janette! Janette Rushing, LCSW Missouri; LSCSW Kansas. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Kansas and have been a licensed clinical social worker for over 20 years! My work has included ages 4-88, with a special passion for college students to seniors, couples, and families. I love my work and hope that, besides the hard work of therapy, you are open to feeling some fun and joy along the way! My approach is all about listening to you, wherever you want to start. I see myself as a companion as you learn to know yourself better, solve problems, and find your best life. My approach Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, and Emotional Freedom Therapy are foundations for my approach, along with Bessel van der Kolk’s *The Body Keeps the Score* therapy model for trauma. I listen deeply. My focus My practice includes a diverse clientele; many college students currently. LGBTQ+, addiction, relationship issues, anger management, depression, anxiety and panic, loneliness, and grief are areas I frequently work through with clients. My communication style Getting to know you is step one. Learning “where it hurts” and what you wish to accomplish is next. As you feel comfortable with therapy, tears and laughter will accompany your growth, and a sense of peace will follow as we walk it out together. My journey to mental healthcare I began my career as a writing teacher but soon experienced students asking me to listen to their personal issues. Family and friends confided in me often, knowing I never betrayed a confidence. I decided to get training, and after much school, I found my true calling. I have loved being a therapist ever since. I love to see individuals, couples, and families grow and learn to love themselves and each other again. My goals for you What do you wish to accomplish? What do you want? What do you not want? These questions will help you identify your goals.
