Jinaki Banks-Howard

Hi! Congratulations to you on taking the first step toward self-discovery, growth, and healing. Beginning therapy is a courageous decision, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. I’m a licensed mental health professional who works with adults and couples from diverse backgrounds and life experiences.

My areas of focus include, not limited to, depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, women’s issues, and trauma. Whether you're navigating a difficult period or seeking deeper personal insight, I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

My therapeutic style is eclectic, drawing primarily from mindfulness-based practices, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). By integrating a range of approaches, I’m able to develop a treatment plan that is personalized and responsive to your unique needs, goals, and life experiences

In our work together, my goal is to build a strong therapeutic alliance based on trust, honesty, and transparency. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and free to express yourself openly.
