Hello, my name is Janice Essa. I have been working as a clinical social worker for 34 years. I have over 15 years as a private practitioner. I see people individually and have enjoyed working with younger and older adults.

Humans are hardwired for connection, that's why relationships (including the one we have with ourselves) are the fabric of our existence. We are products of our environments and experiences. For some of us, relationships and connecting with others in healthy ways can be challenging. We can work together, metabolizing internal conflict and transforming pain into purpose in a safe and empathic environment built upon acceptance, respect, and curiosity.

When life becomes overwhelming it is important to know that you are not alone. As a licensed mental health counselor, I will support you through those times when you need a caring professional to help you gain perspective and provide you with the tools you need to find balance and move forward.

When a client comes to me for therapy, they are seeking some way to not just share their problems but to find solutions and remedies based on their own effort. The point having therapy is for the individual to be able to find their own answer based on what works for them and created on their terms. The reason that people would want to achieve this autonomous feeling is because this develops into a security that the individual can feel confident in themselves to rely on themselves when tackling life’s problems and everyday obstacles.

Life can feel like a cluster of challenging, confusing, and never-ending hurdles. When left to tackle them on your own, it can sometimes feel overwhelming. I believe in creating a safe, non-judgmental, compassionate, and empowering space to process past difficulties, current stressors, and future anxieties. I aim to create an atmosphere of emotional safety, trust, and respect. My therapeutic style is a collaborative, client-centered and culturally sensitive approach. Together, we will explore obstacles that hinder your ability to reach your fullest potential and work to overcome your personal or professional difficulties.
