About Janeka

Janeka McGee is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 13 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, mood concerns, ADHD, and major life transitions.

Background and approach

She draws on a background in clinical therapy and supervision to create individualized plans that address challenges such as depression, relationship strains, parenting difficulties, grief, career changes, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and anger management. Her practice emphasizes practical strategies and collaborative goal-setting to help clients move forward.

Her manner is described as warm and inviting, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and a nonjudgmental stance. She blends client-centered listening with evidence-based techniques so sessions are both validating and skill-oriented.

Janeka tailors interventions - for example using cognitive and behavioral tools alongside emotionally focused and mindfulness strategies - to fit each persons needs rather than applying one fixed method. Clients who choose her can expect a focus on strengths, clear treatment goals, and coaching-style support when appropriate.

She works with individuals across a wide range of concerns and aims to empower people to confront obstacles, build coping skills, and pursue meaningful change.

Approaches and Online Care for Practical Growth



Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathic listening and creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings. This approach helps people feel heard and supported while they clarify goals and identify strengths.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) emphasizes identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing concrete skills to change behaviors and emotions. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problem-solving in daily life.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches distress tolerance, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills. Those tools can be especially useful for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist works collaboratively with each client to identify goals, test interventions, and adjust methods based on what proves most helpful for the individual's needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule or to connect from different locations. These options allow for ongoing support, skills practice between sessions, and varied communication styles to suit different comfort levels and routines.
