About Janeka

LCSW Janeka McGee has 13 years of experience in clinical social work in Mississippi. She focuses on stress, anxiety, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, relationship and family concerns, parenting, career issues, grief, anger, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and coaching. Janeka uses a mix of client-centered approaches, cognitive behavioral methods, dialectical behavior techniques, emotionally-focused strategies, and mindfulness practices.

Janeka prefers straightforward, respectful conversation. She avoids labels and judgment. Sessions involve listening, reflecting, and helping people try different coping skills. She works with practical goals such as managing symptoms, improving communication, or making life changes.

Her background includes clinical therapy and supervision over more than a decade. Janeka combines person-focused care with structured behavioral techniques and emotion-focused work. That blend lets her shift between goal-driven exercises and open conversation depending on what a person needs.

In a session she might teach a coping skill, practice a new way of thinking, or guide an exercise to notice and regulate strong emotions. Mindfulness tools are used to reduce reactivity and improve attention. DBT-based strategies help when emotions feel overwhelming.

Janeka encourages people to set clear, manageable objectives. She approaches work as a collaboration, with check-ins to see what helps and what doesn’t. Her practice accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.

To begin, prospective clients use a subscription-based scheduling system and complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first session. Costs vary by location and the subscription can be canceled at any time.

How Janeka uses therapeutic approaches in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflection. The therapist follows the person’s lead, clarifies concerns, and helps them set goals. This approach is useful when someone wants to be heard first and work toward practical changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Sessions can include simple exercises to change unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides specific skills for handling intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Online sessions using DBT ideas may teach breathing and grounding techniques and practice communication skills for relationship challenges.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Janeka will work with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the plan as progress is made and checks in regularly about what is and isn’t working.

Session formats are not listed in the supplied biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a work break, or not needing to travel. It also allows the therapist to guide practical exercises, teach skills, and review progress in ways that fit everyday routines.
