Welcome. Given the circumstance of being a human in the world we currently live in, it makes sense that one would be anxious and depressed. Even so, I believe that there still exists pathways for one to live a rich, textured life, filled with the capacity for love, creativity, and meaningful work. Often our solutions for living just lead to more suffering. Whether it’s by drinking too much or by rigid prohibitions, by compulsive eating or punitive restrictions on food—phobias, addictions, preoccupations, inhibitions, apathy, indecision, isolation, self-criticism—there are myriad ways to suffer.

My goal is to establish a collaborative relationship with the client directed toward wholeness and their personal growth and transformation. I strive to move away from the stigma and labeling that traditional abnormal psychology offers and focus on my client's strengths and mutually developed goals to help them reach their highest potential. Body-mind-spirit integration is my personal life foundation, and it is the core of my therapeutic approach. I provide individual and couples therapy for the issues of depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship difficulties, life transitions, coping with stress, chronic illness, cancer, bereavement counseling, and many more.

When you are physically ill you turn to your doctor, hoping they can help you feel better. Problems like depression, anxiety, impulsivity, uncontrollable anger, guilt, or low self-confidence can be as painful, if not more so, than physical illness; they can also create serious relationship and work difficulties. I have over 25 years of experience and I have helped many adults, adolescents, and couples who had received limited or no benefit from previous therapists, other doctors, or medications. I work well with people who are skeptical of, or intimidated by, talk therapy.

Janine Reimen

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW

Verified

A deep connection between therapist and client is key to forming the trust necessary to overcome challenges in one's life. These blocks keep us from realizing our potential and can manifest in a variety of ways, from depression and anxiety, to relationship issues and job dissatisfaction. My approach to therapy is to use self understanding and awareness as a mechanism for change. Treatments could include psychoanalytic and psychodynamic techniques to access unconscious material or a more problem focused, short term approach depending on the issues at hand. I also work with Trauma using EMDR.

The successful outcome of the work done in therapy is so very much a result of the unique relationship between patient and therapist. To that end my practice is one in which I am active, supportive and non-judgemental.Emotional injuries from the past live in the present, effecting how we relate and react to people and events throughout life. Psychotherapy has the potential to heal past wounds and impart the insights that can result in a healthier, more emotionally prosperous present. Depression, anxiety and relationship problems need not define us.
