About Janine
Janine Gonzalez is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma, and related concerns. She brings 28 years of experience to sessions and centers the person as the expert in their own story. Janine listens first and asks practical questions to clarify what matters most.
She uses everyday language and short-term goals so people can try changes between meetings. Sessions are straightforward and paced to each person's needs.
Background and approach
Her background includes long-term work with people facing complex life challenges. That experience informs how she responds to grief, relationship strain, parenting stress, and caregiver burnout. She also supports people dealing with panic, obsessions or compulsions, and the impact of past abuse.
Janine draws on a mix of approaches to fit each situation. She may use cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking, acceptance and commitment ideas to strengthen values-based action, and client-centered listening to reflect what a person most needs right now. Sessions can be held by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit schedules.
Janine works in Florida and provides services in English. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a time that fits their routine.
Practical therapy approaches for online care
Janine commonly blends cognitive behavioral techniques with acceptance and commitment ideas and a client-centered stance. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety and panic. Acceptance and commitment therapy focuses on values and gentle acceptance so people can take meaningful action even when uncomfortable feelings remain. Client-centered therapy emphasizes careful listening and reflection so the person feels heard and can make clearer choices.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Janine will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as needed based on feedback and progress.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit quick check-ins, and messaging is helpful for brief updates or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on practical steps and steady progress.
