I’m very happy with Ms Janet. She shows you that she really does care. That’s hard to find
Janet has been a great help in navigating through rough times
She feels like a friend I can talk to about anything
Janet is amazing with her check ins and she has such a nice manner. She speaks with confidence, but listens and gives strategies.
Janet has never made me feel less than or judged me in anyway and has always made me valid in how I feel would strongly recommend
Janet is amazing. Our sessions together are always fun, and we get to a problem resolution quickly. She is supportive, caring, and incredibly intelligent. She is great at what she does!
Janet is amazing!!!
She is exactly who I needed and I look forward to her thoughtfulness, energy, and support!
Janet is the most amazing therapist I could ask for. She makes you open up so easily and you feel like you’re talking to your best friend. She’s also funny and never fails to put you in a good mood.
Affirming and understanding, patient, a lovely person all around.
That friend you can trust to tell anything to, but is also smart and insightful enough to guide and help ...that's Janet! Highly recommend Ms. Hughes.
Janet is excellent at what she does and has been super accommodating of my specific needs and goals. She's been open and attentive in every session we've had and is very quick to pick up on how you're feeling and what underlying issues may be present - she's great at matching your own energy. I highly recommend her!
Janet understands grief
Best experience I love gathering new tools
She is currently helping me through some tough times and it’s working. She reads into everything and boils it down to pinpoint what the main cause/issues are. Improvement began with the very first session, I highly recommend her because how she’s helping me is working!
Janet is a wonderful therapist...caring and knowledgeable.
Janet is a great listener and easy to talk to.
