Janeen Mongar, LPC

Janeen Mongar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, or struggles with motivation. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be talked through. Taking that first step can feel hard, and she aims to make it easier to reach out.

With 17 years of experience, Janeen draws on practical methods to address day-to-day thinking patterns and habits. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of responding. Sessions are conversational and focused on small, doable changes that fit into daily life.

She also brings in elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when people need help with strong emotions or relationship patterns. Those methods offer tools for regulating intense feelings and improving how people relate to others. The goal is clearer thinking and steadier behavior rather than quick fixes.

Janeen works with a broad range of concerns including trauma, PTSD, mood disorders, ADHD, addictions, and stress from disasters or caregiving. She pays attention to practical coping skills, sleep habits, and routines that affect mood and functioning. Her style is warm and grounded, with an emphasis on collaboration and realistic steps forward.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It teaches noticing strategies and small value-driven steps that can reduce avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with practical exercises. CBT often uses simple at-home practices to shift habits and improve mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers tools for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance through concrete skills training.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work itself. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust plans based on what helps in real life.

Confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats use less bandwidth or no camera, which can help if a quick session fits better into a lunch break. In any case, the focus is on practical skills and habits that translate into everyday situations rather than on a particular mode of delivery.
