About Janeen
Janeen Savini is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Connecticut with 10 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, life changes, parenting strain, grief, and depression. She also focuses on family of origin issues and attachment concerns that continue to affect present-day relationships.
She takes a straightforward, person-focused approach in sessions. Janeen listens to each person's story and helps identify thoughts and beliefs that keep them stuck. She uses practical strategies from cognitive behavioral work and skills training to manage symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning.
Janeen blends several methods so people can build concrete tools. That can include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas about values and action, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation, and client-centered conversations to clarify goals. She also draws on attachment-based perspectives when early family roles and patterns still shape current choices.
Sessions tend to emphasize short-term goals and clear steps people can use between meetings. Janeen helps clients set achievable targets, practice new responses, and notice progress. She frames the work as collaborative problem solving rather than labels or long assessments.
Her background includes a master-level degree in mental health counseling and a decade of clinical work with adults. People who want direct, practical support for relationship patterns, family of origin issues, or coping with life transitions may find this approach helpful.
How her therapeutic approaches work for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small meaningful actions. It helps people who feel stuck by shifting attention from unhelpful avoidance to concrete steps that match what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques for changing unhelpful thinking and reactions. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to early family roles and relationship patterns. It helps people understand how those patterns affect current partnerships and communication.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try different methods to see what fits. That collaborative process helps shape session focus and homework between meetings.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a break. It can also let people practice skills where they live and notice responses between sessions. Therapists will work with each person to adapt exercises and pacing to what works in an online setting.
