More about Jana

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

Hello! I am an individual and family counselor licensed in both Illinois and Florida with nearly 17 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, adoption/foster care issues, sexual abuse victims, sexual behavior problems and sexual offender issues as well as many other issues.

My counseling style is judgement free, warm and respectful. I believe that everyone deserves hope and deserves the opportunity to change and grow. I use a combination of cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic and reality therapy to help my clients live their best lives. We will work together to develop a treatment plan that is specific to your wants and needs, creating achievable goals and objectives.

I recognize that asking for help can be a difficult process, especially if you are holding on to pain, fear or shame. I will be kind, respectful and supportive as you take your first and final steps into finding the person you want to be.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
