Hello! I am Janel Porter, a licensed marriage and family therapist with a passion for helping individuals, families, and couples overcome struggles. I utilize a blend of cognitive-behavioral therapy, family systems work, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy strategies. This means we will address the thoughts and beliefs influencing your behavior, set realistic and achievable goals based on your current situation, and work together to move beyond challenges towards a more promising future.
I am direct, warm, and charismatic; My clients learn that their time in therapy is a safe place where they are free to share thoughts and emotions and even share a genuine laugh sometimes.
I became a counselor because I want to help people through their challenges. Therapy was a lifeline for me during some of my most difficult times. I believe having an ally to help you find your way through the dark is a necessity.
