Janan Leya

I hold two advanced degrees, Master of Social Work and Master of Science in Nursing Education. I integrate evidence-based modalities and techniques into my work based upon your needs. Some of the modalities I use are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness, and Somatic Experiencing. I was a holistic nurse for 15 years assisting clients with maximizing their physical, psychological, and/or spiritual health. As a licensed clinical social worker, I have worked with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, addiction, PTSD, complex trauma, and early childhood neglect or abuse. My clients are adults including those of diverse cultural, ethnic, and/or religious backgrounds.

I offer a collaborative and compassionate space where we can explore your thoughts, emotions, patterns, or experiences with curiosity and without judgment. Together we’ll uncover what has been keeping you stuck, strengthen your capacity for growth and self-compassion, and develop practical tools that support lasting change. I believe that just as the body knows how to heal, the psyche holds its own wisdom. My goal is to listen deeply, support your renewal process, and strengthen your connection to your inner wisdom and resilience.

During our first session, you can expect to be appreciated as a unique human being. I will ask you many questions for a bio-psycho-social assessment. It would be helpful if you could share what you hope to get out of therapy with me.
