Janet is by far THE BEST therapist I've ever seen! I've been with her over the last 9 years! I wouldn't see anyone else, I'd recommend anyone looking for a GREAT therapist visit Janet. She is professional, kind, trustworthy, knowledgeable, a great support, and just all around the best therapist in business! You can always count on her in your time of need, appointments are easily scheduled, calls always returned, consideration of your well being thru the entire therapeutic process! I'd give her all the stars in the world if I could!!!

Janet truly made a difference in my life and my child's life. Her 'help" began immediately. The things that needed immediate attention, she gave me options to try, showed me what I could maybe do better at, gave me encouragement. While there is never a "quick fix" , there are changes that can be tried and made quickly. She always makes an extra effort to be polite and courteous. Her primary concern is my safety and comfort, and she always took the time to address every concern of mine immediately. The restrooms at this provider's office were clean and well-maintained. You could tell that they cleaned them regularly. Not only did I find a parking spot right away, but I knew my car was safe because the spots were designated and close to the entrance. The office was easy enough to find.
