About Janeen

Janeen Savini is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Connecticut with a decade of clinical experience. She works with adults facing life changes, relationship strain, anxiety, and anger. Janeen approaches therapy as a partnership and aims to help people build practical skills to move forward.

She creates a calm, trusting environment where clients can talk about painful feelings and confusing situations. Janeen listens closely to each person’s story and helps identify thoughts and beliefs that get in the way. She uses clear, skill-based tools from cognitive behavioral approaches to reduce overwhelm and increase control.

Her work draws on client-centered care and trauma-informed practices. That means she follows the client’s pace and pays attention to how past wounds affect current reactions. Janeen also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people choose actions that match their values, even when emotions are hard.

Sessions often focus on small, doable steps such as building coping skills, practicing new responses, and setting concrete goals. She supports people who want stronger self-esteem, better communication, or relief from grief and caregiver stress. Janeen also addresses issues like codependency, control struggles, and family-of-origin concerns.

Janeen holds a master’s degree in mental health counseling and brings ten years of practice to each case. She aims to help people feel more able to handle daily demands and create a more meaningful life. Her role is to guide and support clients as they try new ways of coping and relating.

Approaches that translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, anger, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. It teaches concrete skills for changes in mood, behavior, and relationships.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape expectations and reactions today, helping people rework patterns that lead to conflict or feeling stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful for their goals and situation. That choice can shift as progress is made, and sessions often blend techniques for the best fit.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into busy routines and keep progress consistent. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make scheduling around work or caregiving simpler. Because the available session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm the exact online or in-person options before booking. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work to remote sessions so people can use skills between meetings and follow a steady plan for change.
