INDIVIDUAL THERAPY: You are one of a kind. There has never been anyone like you and never will be again. Therapy is a place where you have the opportunity to know yourself in a deep and intimate way. The journey towards wholeness begins with embracing (and discovering) our many and often rejected parts that comprise our authentic self. Wounds, triggers and defenses exist for a reason and represent the internal maps that lead to healing. COUPLES THERAPY: Relationships are the path to knowing who we are and I believe that what needs to be healed presents itself through the struggles and dynamics that get activated in partnership.

I bring an open mind, warm intelligence, humor and loving presence to my work. I'm an "inclusiastic" therapist who integrates insights from many systems to help unlock the intelligence that lives inside of you. Feeling safe and deeply seen will help you move towards wholeness and authenticity. Together we eradicate limiting beliefs so you feel more alive.
I use my skills as a therapist, artist, and my experience in a 29-year relationship to help clients examine their lives, heal from the past, and create connections with themselves and others that bring forth love and vitality. I welcome the opportunity to help you clarify and tend to what needs attention in your life. Visit my website at janetcroteau.com.
