Janean Stepp LICSW
Hello
My name is Janean Stepp, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I provide telehealth therapy to individuals age 13+. I have worked with clients with a wide range of issues including serious mental illness, behavioral issues, grief and loss, trauma, crisis situations, and major life changes and transitions. I believe you are the expert on yourself, and I want to help you identify your strengths and how to use them to overcome the obstacles preventing you from living a better life.
About Me
In addition to being a social worker I am the mother of an amazing daughter, a very spoiled dog, and a staff member for a long suffering cat. I enjoy traveling to see new places, reading (almost any genre), coloring, listening to music (nearly anything but polka), taking long walks, and watching Dr. Who, MCU movies, documentaries, and true crime videos.
When the opportunity to pursue an education and choose a new career path presented itself I decided I wanted to help empower others to find their way through hard times from a place of empathy and understanding. It is my belief that when we are struggling the most powerful and important tool we have is being able to hold on to hope. As long as we keep hope alive we will find the strength to keep fighting to overcome our most difficult challenges.
The most important aspect of providing therapy is forming a relationship based on empathy, trust, and a safe environment. I believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and understanding. I also believe that therapy should be tailored to the individual; there is not a one size fits all treatment. I have the most experience with aspects of CBT, Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness techniques. I want to help you discover what works best for you.
