Meet Janet Peña (she/her), LGPC, BCBA
Janet is passionate about facilitating self realization and identity exploration for individuals who are experiencing life transitions. She helps you to identify traumatic conditioning and recognize which behavior patterns are serving you, and which are not so that you can begin to cultivate powerful change in your life. If you have tried a lot of things and feel stuck, Janet can help you break patterns and learn to trust your body and yourself.
Janet has lived experience navigating parenting relationships with children and teens, and can help you navigate these relationships from a place of groundedness, compassion, and grace. Whether you need support navigating family dynamics with a partner and/or blended family, or exploring your own relationship history, Janet can work with you to arrive at a place of conscious awareness and presence. If you are ready to unlearn past conditioning and are eager to do the work, Janet is the right fit for you.

I am currently ONLY offering telehealth for therapy clients. At this time, the only in-person appointments I offer are for Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. In-person appointments take place in Frederick, Maryland. When we meet for our Telehealth appointment, we will meet virtually via a HIPPA-compliant video platform. I will send you the link to our meeting ahead of time so you are prepared! Please be sure you have a quiet, private place to go for your appointment. If you do not, please reach out to me so I can assist you.
Nicole is currently paneled with Cigna and United Healthcare, and also accepts private pay clients.
Janet is out of network and offers a generous sliding scale.
For out of network sessions, we are able to provide you with an itemized receipt that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement (please note that reimbursement is at the discretion of your insurance company and therefore is not guaranteed).
I ask that you give me as much notice as possible if you need to cancel an appointment. For appointments cancelled 24 hours or less ahead of your scheduled appointment, there will be a $75 missed appointment fee.
Rei - (Spiritual Wisdom) ki (Life Energy) is a Japanese technique for stress reduction, relaxation, and the promotion of healing. Reiki is an energetic healing technique that treats the body, mind and spirit.
Typically, Reiki is given to a client when a practitioner places their hands lightly on the client to send healing energy, however the practitioner can send distance Reiki as well via virtual sessions. Virtual sessions allow you to receive Reiki in the comfort of your own home no matter where you're located! We'll meet via online video platform (or in person if you're local) and discuss any physical or emotional areas you want to focus on. Sessions last for 60 minutes, with allotted time to discuss areas of focus.
For the appointment, you will need a comfortable place to lay down, and may want a blanket, a pillow, and an eye covering. Some clients report a sense of deep relaxation, and you may feel sensations of warmth or tingling during our session.
While Reiki is a healing practice, please note: Reiki practitioners do not diagnose conditions, nor do they prescribe or perform medical treatment, prescribe substances, nor interfere with the treatment of a licensed medical professional. Reiki does not take the place of medical care. It is recommended that clients see a licensed physician or licensed health care professional for any physical or psychological ailment they may have
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), also known as Tapping, is a powerful stress-reduction technique that uses acupressure points to reduce cortisol within the body. Learn more about Tapping HERE.
