Great to meet you!

Hi! I'm Jan, a therapist with over 14 years of experience. I can help you with anxiety, depression, relationships, life transitions, career, ADHD, and childhood trauma. I understand how deeply these challenges can impact your life, as I’ve navigated similar paths myself. I’m here to offer a nurturing, safe space where your experiences are validated, and your voice is truly heard. Together, we’ll move beyond empathy toward meaningful solutions that fit your life—even if you have a busy schedule. To make healing accessible, I offer telehealth options along with afternoon and evening office hours.

My passion is working with the LGBTQIA+ community, women, young adults, and marginalized folx because they often struggle in ways that society fails to understand. (Please note, my practice generally focuses on clients other than cisgender, heterosexual men.)

My clients are often those who feel alone, sad, or are struggling to find their "people." Maybe you feel unhappy but aren't sure what your next steps should be. Or you feel stuck because of trauma or mood issues, and you're ready to get help because you can't do it alone anymore.

Have you been in a toxic romantic relationship that has made you feel small or worthless?

I specialize in helping you navigate the healing journey after a toxic relationship. By prioritizing your emotional recovery, you can reclaim your sense of self, restore your inner peace, and rediscover your confidence from the inside out.

Your story is your own, and I strive to create a space where you feel truly heard and understood, meeting you with empathy exactly where you are in your journey. As your supportive guide, I am here to help you navigate life’s challenges, fostering a deeper connection to yourself and helping you uncover your unique sense of purpose.

Please note I do not take insurance for couples and family sessions. The cost is $150 per 75 minutes.

My approach to therapy

I use a holistic, whole-self approach, recognizing that every part of your life shapes your mental well-being. My practice is deeply client-centered; I believe you are the true expert of your own life, and you lead the way in deciding which areas we explore. My role is to listen intently to your concerns and provide gentle guidance as we navigate the challenges you find most difficult together.

We will utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to address thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, as well as Attachment-Based Therapy/EFT to understand how our emotions and our past influence our connections to others. I also utilize trauma-informed, solution-focused, attachment, experiential, interpersonal, and mind-body (somatic) techniques as needed.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we will go over the Intake paperwork you completed, and I will ask questions and listen to your story to get to know you. We will also discuss ways for you to begin feeling better and the goals you hope to accomplish in therapy.
