About Janeen

Janeen Savini is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Connecticut with ten years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing life changes, anxiety, relationship challenges, and grief. Janeen emphasizes practical change and partners with people to build skills that help them move forward.

She focuses on making sessions straightforward and useful. Janeen listens closely to each person's story and helps identify thoughts and beliefs that get in the way. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot patterns and develop new coping skills.

Her approach draws from client-centered work and attachment-focused ideas to strengthen connections and self-understanding. She also incorporates acceptance and commitment ideas to help people choose actions that match their values. These methods are used alongside skills from dialectical behavior therapy when emotional regulation is a focus.

Janeen describes therapy as a collaborative process. She helps people set concrete goals and uses solution-focused tools to track progress. This can include building confidence, improving communication, or managing stress related to caregiving, cancer, or life transitions.

Sessions aim to help people regain a sense of control and hope. Janeen invites clients to explore difficult emotions at a pace that feels manageable. Her work often addresses family of origin issues, codependency, infidelity, and other relationship strains.

She offers a calm, attentive style and emphasizes practical skills for everyday life. If someone wants to begin, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Janeen uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is practical and often focuses on small changes that reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to help people understand how early relationships shape current connections and reactions. That work can help with relationship patterns, trust issues, and family of origin concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janeen collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and needs. She may combine elements from several approaches and adjust plans as progress is made.

Confirm current online session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed in the profile. Many people find online therapy easier to fit into busy schedules, which can make short check-ins or regular sessions simpler to keep. Online work also makes homework, skill practice, and tracking progress more convenient during the week. Licensed professionals can offer the same goal-focused exercises and emotion regulation skills used in person, while adapting pacing and tools to suit remote sessions.
