About Jana
She uses clear, direct talk therapy alongside techniques that focus on thoughts and behavior. Jana draws on methods that help people notice what matters to them, build skills, and choose actions that match their values. She emphasizes practical steps people can use between sessions.
With 12 years of experience, Jana aims to create a steady, collaborative space. She listens for strengths and patterns, then works with each person to set small, achievable goals. Progress often comes from trying new responses and practicing them in daily life.
Her approach blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas, motivational interviewing, and a client-centered stance. These methods are used to address anger, relationship patterns, and coping under stress. Jana explains tools in simple language and coaches people through using them.
People who come to her can expect a practical focus on what they can influence right now. Sessions are oriented toward solving current problems and building long-term coping. Those interested in starting are asked to use the site's Start Therapy button to begin the matching and scheduling process.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values even when emotions are strong. It focuses on building commitment to meaningful actions rather than only reducing symptoms. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood and offers tools to change unhelpful patterns through practical exercises and practice. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships affect current bonds and coping, and it supports building healthier ways of relating and responding to stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jana will discuss goals and preferences and then tailor methods to fit what the person needs. That collaborative process lets people try techniques, see what helps, and adjust the plan together.
Session formats are not specified in the therapist biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also allows practicing skills in the context of everyday life, which many people find helpful when working on anger, stress, and coping strategies.
