Janet Chrem

I work best with children, adolescents, and families navigating anxiety, depression, mood dysregulation, ADHD, ASD, and family conflict. Many come in feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to manage emotions or behaviors. They’re often looking for practical tools, improved communication, and support in building confidence, structure, and stability at home and school. I also work with young adults who are navigating transitions such as college, independence, or identity development. Many are managing anxiety, stress, or feeling uncertain about their next steps, and are looking to build coping skills, clarity, and confidence.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially for kids and teens who may not always have the words to explain what they’re going through. My goal is to create a space where clients feel comfortable, understood, and supported, while also helping them build the skills they need to handle life’s challenges more confidently.

I use practical, skills-based approaches tailored to each client. CBT helps shift unhelpful thought patterns, while DBT skills support emotion regulation and coping. I incorporate family work to improve communication and use Motivational Interviewing to build readiness for change.

My approach is collaborative and practical. I believe in meeting clients where they are, whether they’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about change, while gently helping them move forward. Therapy with me is not just about talking; it’s about learning real, usable tools to manage emotions, improve relationships, and feel more in control day-to-day.
