Hi! My name is Jaana Meeks, a Licensed, Independent, Clinical Social Worker (LICSW). I have 20 years of experience in the field of Mental/Behavioral Health. I honestly cannot picture myself doing anything else. I realize (from experiences of my own) that deciding to work with a therapist is a tough decision. I will try my best to ease some of that (especially initially) anxiety. We'll go through the process at whatever speed you need/want. Chances are you have many strengths upon which to build. I believe strongly that therapy is a team approach, and you are the coach.
As a Therapist, I believe Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can be extremely beneficial. We can learn together how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are intertwined - helping you to become aware of inaccurate or negative thinking so you can begin to view challenging situations more clearly and respond to them in a more effective way.
I try to create a welcoming, comfortable, and kind of "laid-back" environment. You'll learn your private information stays that way - PRIVATE. You will also learn that your well-being is my top priority. It really is imperative to me for us to learn to trust each other and form an honest therapeutic relationship.
