Janine Gonzalez, LCSW, CSW

Janine Gonzalez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Colorado and New Mexico with 28 years of practice experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and relationship and family concerns. Janine helps with practical problems like parenting strain, grief, intimacy issues, and coping with life changes.

Her background includes long-term work with diverse individuals managing complex problems. She uses clear, goal-focused methods so conversations move toward concrete changes. Sessions focus on what is getting in the way now and small steps to reduce distress.

Janine draws from cognitive behavioral approaches to notice unhelpful thinking and try different actions. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and build commitment to meaningful choices. Client-centered ideas guide how she listens and responds in sessions.

She addresses specific concerns such as panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive patterns, caregiver stress, aging and end-of-life issues, domestic violence impacts, and family-of-origin wounds. Practical topics like communication problems, anger, guilt and shame are common in her work.

Her style is straightforward and oriented to everyday life. People leave sessions with a plan they can use between meetings. To begin, readers should confirm current session options before booking and follow the site steps to schedule a first meeting.
