About Janee
Janee Anez is a licensed independent clinical social worker with 18 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, depression, and major life changes. She aims to make the first step feel possible and supports clients through practical problem solving and steady listening.
She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what matters most. Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps that can change day-to-day life. Conversations are practical and grounded rather than full of jargon.
Her work blends evidence-informed methods with an emphasis on inner experience and values. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Mindfulness practices are used to build awareness and ease emotional intensity.
Motivational Interviewing is part of how she helps people clarify what matters and stay motivated to make changes. Solution-Focused techniques keep sessions targeted on concrete next steps that fit a person's life.
Janee also uses Internal Family Systems ideas to help people understand different parts of themselves and how those parts interact. That approach can be helpful for people wrestling with self-criticism, trauma memories, or conflicted feelings.
She works in Minnesota and conducts sessions in English. If you want to explore therapy, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to her availability so you can see if the approach fits your needs.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Janee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot patterns of thinking that keep problems going and then try small experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting. Mindfulness Therapy is used to strengthen moment-to-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, which can help with anxiety, grief, and mood shifts.Choosing an approach is a team effort. She works with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life, and adjusts strategies as progress is made. Expect a collaborative process that tests what works and drops what does not.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow for regular check-ins that support steady progress. It can also let people try different ways of working, such as focused skill practice or brief problem-solving sessions, and then move to longer sessions when deeper processing is needed.
