Welcome to the Empowered Life
I am returning to my highly ventilated office on SUNDAYS only
for Biofeedback and Counselling appointments.
Please see my "Covid Safety" page (link on left or drop down menu on mobile)
for details about my risk mitigation protocols.
Many people are feeling more stressed and anxious, and any pre-existing issues may become more reactive. Online counselling or "teletherapy" can be an effective and convenient resource in our time of social distancing.
As a Registered Clinical Counsellor and Biofeedback Specialist, I can help you better cope with a range of psychological, emotional and physical issues. I draw from a wide spectrum of therapeutic modalities to allow you to reach a higher level of personal empowerment. I believe there is always hope for any problem, no matter how longstanding or complex.
My clients come in for help with getting their life back on track: feeling anxious or depressed, sleep problems, unhealthy reliance on chemicals (legal and not legal), unfulfilled, frustrated, disorganized, or just stressed out. My practice areas focus on anxiety, disability issues, addiction/recovery, chronic pain of any kind: headaches, nerve and muscle pain,
or “psychosomatic” issues.
If you feel that stress is aggravating any medical or psychological condition, then my evidence-based biofeedback and counselling approach has real potential to offer you
at least some degree of relief.
I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist and have advanced training for
panic attacks, using a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT),
somatic psychology and physiological techniques.
I offer a polyvagal informed approach to anxiety and depression, for those
interested in the work of Dr. Steve Porges, PhD.

What medical professionals are saying about my work:
"My client who worked with Janette for approximately 4 months spoke very highly of Janette and the sessions she provided. Janette helped my client accept her new identity and abilities (e.g., diagnosed with fibromyalgia and chronic pain), and now my client is very motivated to reclaim her life back (e.g., after 2 — 3 years of being absent from work, my client just returned to back to her job!).”

"Ms. Sperber's methods have good efficacy, and she always has
very high patient satisfaction."
Dr. Thomas McClure, M.D.
Medical Director, Occupational Medicine Services
Kalispell Medical Center
Montana, USA
In the words of a former client:
-- I found Ms. Sperber to be wise, empathetic, and compassionate. I would highly recommend her services in approaching virtually any issue which requires
clarification and/or resolution.
