About Janeka
Janeka McGee is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Mississippi with 13 years of practice experience. She focuses on common life stresses and mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, grief, parenting strain, career pressure, and bipolar symptoms. Her background also includes work around relationship and family challenges, anger, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and coaching for life transitions.
Her approach is straightforward and client-centered. Janeka uses conversation, practical techniques, and skills practice rather than jargon. She combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral ideas, dialectical behavior techniques, emotionally-focused methods, and mindfulness exercises depending on what a person needs.
In sessions she listens for what is getting in the way day to day, then suggests small, concrete steps to try between meetings. That can include experimenting with thinking patterns, practicing emotion regulation skills, or trying short mindfulness exercises. She also draws on emotionally-focused methods when relationship patterns are a focus.
Janeka has experience in both direct clinical work and in supervision. She aims to treat people without judgment and to reduce stigma around seeking help. Her style is consultative and practical, oriented toward real-life changes at home, work, and in relationships.
To start, she guides people through a clear first meeting to set goals and plan next steps. Prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule the first session to begin the work.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients feel heard and understood. Online sessions can use that same conversational focus to identify priorities and make a straightforward plan for change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. In virtual sessions this often means setting simple between-session tasks, tracking thoughts, and reviewing what did or did not work.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills. Those skills can be taught in session, practiced together, and then reviewed during follow-ups to build reliability under stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This is a collaborative process that balances techniques with the client's preferences and daily responsibilities.
The biography does not specify which online formats are used. Confirm the available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets therapists use screen-shared worksheets, guided mindfulness recordings, and structured skills practice during sessions to support progress.
