Background and approach
Jana focuses on creating a space where people can speak honestly and begin to carry less of their burden. Jana uses several methods to tailor care to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current connections and emotional reactions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are priorities. She often blends these strategies with solution-focused ideas and mind-body techniques to address trauma, grief, and compulsive behaviors.
The work is paced to fit what each person can manage, with attention to practical tools that can be used between sessions. People who contact Jana usually want concrete ways to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. She offers a calm presence alongside skill-building so clients can move toward clearer decisions and steadier emotional ground.

04Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships affect current feelings and reactions, and it helps people understand patterns in close relationships. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and experience, offering empathy and acceptance while the client leads the pace of change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches strategies to change unhelpful patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and daily life to decide which methods to use. That collaboration makes it easier to try techniques that fit the person's needs and comfort level.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for longer therapy or deeper conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep steady progress between appointments.
