Janel Beidel, LCSW
I have been gifted with the ability to allow people to feel seen, heard, understood, and not judged. I cultivate an environment that is filled with compassion, humor (laughter always helps!), learning, and growth.
Areas where I excel in helping adults to reclaim their authentic self are things such as:
anxiety
addictions
life transitions
stress
perfection / high achieving behaviors (often from extremely high expectations)
messages received throughout life that make you feel stuck (often from traumatic experiences that may not feel like it was traumatic)
I tend to carry a trauma lens with just about anything and will help you reflect back on things from the past that have influenced this thing that makes you feel “stuck” and unable to be your authentic self.
Your life was made to be different from everyone else. So be YOU! That’s who this world needs you to be.
Oftentimes the things we struggle with are symptoms of something deeper. I am a therapist that will focus on getting to the root and address that issue. I can work with you on the symptoms and simply stay focused there, but even from my own experience, I’ve discovered that until the root has been addressed, the symptoms or behaviors that we work on oftentimes do return.
If you are a person that knows the different modalities used in the therapeutic relationship, some of my go-to modalities are: Psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, somatic work, and EMDR.
What clients have said about me and our work together:
“You get me!”
“I feel comfortable with you. You don’t judge me.”
“You always ask great questions that cause me to think.”
“I understand myself better than I thought I would.”
“You’re badass!!”
