Jeanette "Jan" Kaschmitter

My name is Jeanette “Jan” Kaschmitter and I have been a licensed mental health therapist in Washington State since 2001. I have 13 years experience working in fully integrated mental health and substance abuse programs. I am not credentialed in substance use. During the course of my career I have worked in community mental health, inpatient psychiatric, and a tribal clinic. I have provided individual, couples, and group counseling to primarily an adult population. The methods I use come from several different therapeutic models. Some of the specific techniques used are derived from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I consider myself eclectic in nature and strive to meet the individual needs of people served. I have specialized training in grief and loss, trauma/sexual abuse, and co-occurring disorders. It is my belief that we are all capable of healing and reaching a healthy balance in our lives. There is no greater privilege than to take this healing journey with someone and to see how much they can truly achieve. I am very blessed.
