Janet Muta, LCSW- (Owner)

With over 20 years of experience, she understands that while we all face hurdles, no two people navigate them the same way. Her approach is rooted in the belief that your therapy should be as unique as your story. Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, or the complexities of ADHD, she focuses on personalizing treatment to fit your specific needs and lifestyle. Her background is diverse; in addition to her clinical expertise, she holds a degree in finance. This allows her to offer a grounded perspective for clients whose mental health is impacted by financial stress. From her time conducting diagnostic assessments for the Department of Juvenile Justice to working with military families, she has developed a deep appreciation for the resilience of the human spirit across all walks of life.

Among the treatment modalities she uses are: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Positive Parenting and Contingency Management
