~NOT ACCEPTING COUPLES! Hi! My name is Jana! Thank you for reading my profile :) I want you to know a little about me so you can decide if you'd like to schedule with me. I am licensed in Ohio and I have been a Therapist for over 10 years. I have been doing teletherapy for quite awhile now and I much prefer it to in-office settings. I am a mother to 3 wild kiddos, I live in the country and I [try to] make friends with feral cats. I am very chatty, I enjoy getting to know the people that I am working with. I have a lot of experience in several areas: domestic violence, narcissism, autism, intellectual disabilities, adhd, depression, pregnancy loss, anxiety, parenting issues, life changes, bullying, etc. I like a natural conversation style in sessions so it is as comfortable as possible!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I am very low key and informal. You should be comfortable. I do my sessions as if we are in a giant conversation. We first discuss what brought you into therapy, what you want to work on and then we start developing a game plan.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am very informal and my goal is to make it as comfortable as possible. I am very chatty, do not feel like you have to do all the talking. I am also very humorous, I really enjoy bringing humor into session when appropriate.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I love working with people in general, so there really isn't one type of person that I am inclined to work with over another. I am very behaviorally-oriented and solution focused, so I will ask a lot of questions to help us come to some sort of resolution for you. If I had to choose the people that I have worked the best with - I really enjoy people who have personality disorders, people who are experiencing domestic violence, narcissistic/sociopath abuse, those who have an intellectual disability and people who have depression/ADHD. I also think I am good at making sessions pretty fun and light-hearted.

*NOT ACCEPTING COUPLES! I was trained from a behavioral perspective, so I like to get to the root of the issue by asking lots of questions to develop a clear understanding.
