Getting to know Janette Sheppard
I specialize in Trauma-Focused Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My style is grounded in empowerment. I believe that everyone has the ability to change and improve their well-being. I will work alongside you to provide those tools, ensuring that you feel confident and supported on your journey to personal growth.
With 19 years of military service, I understand the challenges faced by service members and veterans. I can assist with emotional recovery, civilian adjustment, addiction, and mental health concerns. As a bilingual counselor with a Spanish background, I recognize the cultural struggles and use this insight to offer culturally sensitive support and solutions.
I hold a Master's in Social Work from Rutgers University, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to provide effective, compassionate care tailored to each individual's needs.
