Janet Nestor

Janet Nestor, LCMHC, brings a calm, down-to-earth style to therapy. She writes and talks in a straightforward way so people can focus on practical steps. She aims to make it easy to talk about stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, and life changes.

Janet uses a client-centered approach that keeps the person's needs first. She combines that with cognitive work and emotion-focused techniques to help people understand thoughts and feelings. She also draws on mindfulness and solution-focused methods to build coping skills and small, manageable goals.

Her background began in special education, where she worked with adolescents and adults who had ADHD, learning differences, autism, and physical disabilities. That early work shaped how she supports people with neurologic differences and chronic health concerns now. She has also worked with people facing substance use issues and those in long-term recovery.

Janet has more than 23 years of experience in counseling. She often helps people dealing with panic attacks, phobias, persistent stress, and the emotional toll of chronic illness. She is comfortable talking about grief, identity questions, career stress, and compassion fatigue.

In sessions she keeps things informal and practical. She listens first, then helps set short-term goals and simple strategies to try between meetings. People who prefer a relaxed, conversational style often find her easy to talk with and steady in a crisis.
