About Janeen

Janeen Mongar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 17 years of clinical experience. She sees people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and issues with motivation and confidence.

She focuses on helping clients name their emotions and notice the patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions tend to be practical conversations about what is happening now, what reactions come up, and small steps to try between meetings. Her work draws on approaches like Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

Janeen also supports people facing grief, problems sleeping, parenting strain, addictions, and mood-related concerns such as bipolar disorder and seasonal affective disorder. She pays attention to guilt and shame, and she has experience with trauma-related difficulties including post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain injury.

Her style uses client-centered principles to keep discussions focused on each person’s goals and values. She incorporates DBT skills for managing intense emotions and ACT ideas to help people take meaningful action even when feelings are hard.

People who choose her often want clear, down-to-earth conversations and practical tools they can try between sessions. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the site’s online options.

How her approaches translate to online work

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name difficult emotions and the patterns they create in relationships and daily life. EFT can be useful for anyone who struggles to put feelings into words or who finds themselves repeating the same painful interactions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking concrete actions that align with those values, even when unpleasant thoughts or feelings show up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies for changing unhelpful patterns. Both ACT and CBT are often used for anxiety, mood issues, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to emphasize and which skills to practice between sessions.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and lets people try sessions from more convenient surroundings. Licensed professionals can adapt EFT, ACT, and CBT for remote sessions so the focus stays on practical steps and emotional understanding.
