Januarie Bennett, M.Ed

I am a pre-licensed therapist working in private practice under supervision to obtain my license. I work with OCD, anxiety, trauma, life stress, hoarding, and grief/loss. I use CBT and am also EMDR trained.

It is my belief that therapy works best when a client and a therapist are a good match. I do not believe in being the power or authority in the room, but rather walking alongside my clients to have a conversation along the journey. We are all the sums of our experiences and the results of the experiences of those who have come before us. It is in understanding all of those connections that we write the story of who we are in the world. Almost all of us carry hurts that are triggered throughout our lives, and as a therapist, I want to help clients learn the origins so they can rewrite the present and future.

I work in a private practice with 10 other therapists in training under supervision. We bring a rich diversity to our clients and this allows us to help a wide variety of issues and personal experiences. I am currently working on my hours for my licensure as a LPC-MHSP. I graduated in 2016 with my Masters Degree in counseling and human development. I have worked with different populations in that time, including kids at risk, hoarders, those in active addiction, people with developmental delays and issues, and adults with anxiety and OCD.

I offer a safe space to come out of the echo chamber and put light to the darkness. I believe that only after we get these revolving thoughts out and recognized can we find a way to rewrite the narrative and decide what to carry with us forward in our lives. I do a lot of work around communication skills with self and others and challenging the negative thoughts we have all be fed throughout life.

I graduated in 2016 and left the field briefly in 2018 to have my children. I returned in 2025 to the field.
