Janelle Eykin
LMSW
Janelle is a compassionate, empowerment-focused clinician who is passionate about creating a warm, safe, and supportive space where individuals can feel truly heard, valued, and understood. She believes that meaningful change begins with feeling comfortable enough to show up as your authentic self, without fear of judgment.
As a former educator and Licensed Social Worker, Janelle brings a unique perspective and a deep understanding of the many challenges individuals and families may experience throughout different stages of life. She is also familiar with the unique experiences and challenges that Latino individuals and families may face, including the ways culture, family expectations, identity, and life experiences can influence mental health and well-being. She earned her Master of Social Work (MSW) from Fordham University.
Janelle believes therapy is never a “one-size-fits-all” experience. Every person has their own story, strengths, experiences, and goals. Using a person-centered approach, she works collaboratively with clients to create a therapeutic experience that feels individualized, culturally responsive, and meaningful. Her clinical work incorporates evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy, as well as affirming care for LGBTQIA+ individuals.
Janelle also incorporates a narrative perspective into her work, helping clients recognize that they are not defined by their struggles, challenges, or difficult experiences. She believes that each person is more than the obstacles they have faced.
Together, she works with clients to explore their strengths, build resilience, gain new perspectives, and create meaningful change.
Whether you are navigating life's transitions, family or relationship challenges, difficult emotions, cultural expectations, or simply seeking a space to better understand yourself, Janelle is committed to meeting you where you are and supporting you on your journey toward growth and healing.
In her free time, Janelle enjoys spending time with her husband and children, watching sports, and reading.
