About Janeen

Janeen Mongar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and major life changes. She focuses on making the first step toward help feel manageable and supportive for each person who reaches out.

She creates an open space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings without judgment. Sessions are aimed at practical steps and clearer thinking, so people leave with things they can try between meetings. Janeen emphasizes steady progress over quick fixes, and she encourages clients to set realistic goals.

Her work draws on approaches that emphasize values, present-moment awareness, and changing unhelpful patterns. She blends techniques that help people notice their experiences, shift harmful habits, and build emotional skills. This can include learning new ways to cope with anxiety, anger, sleep problems, or shifts after loss.

Janeen has 17 years of experience working in counseling settings in Colorado. That background includes helping people with addictions, parenting strain, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also supports those dealing with fallout from natural or human-caused disasters.

In sessions she aims to listen first and adapt her approach to what each person needs. The work tends to be collaborative and practical, focused on tools you can use in daily life. If you want straightforward help with stress, trauma, or changing patterns, she offers a calm, nonjudgmental presence to guide that work.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing different behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and panic symptoms. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding emotional responses and improving how people process strong feelings in relationships and personal struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, and then suggest strategies to try. This is a collaborative process that can shift as progress is made and needs change.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when a full session is not needed. It can also let people use video or phone options based on what works best for them, and helps maintain continuity of care when life or location changes occur.
