Hi there, I'm Jania!

My approach is strength-based, compassion-focused, and mindfulness-focused. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and grief, particularly specializing in affirming work with queer and trans clients.

My focus

I work with adults aged twenty to eighty. We address anxiety, depression, and grief. I also work with people to affirm gender identity and manage issues around societal oppression related to gender and sexual identity.

My approach

I use strength-based approaches that emphasize enhancing what is already working in your life and amplifying your skills to move forward healthily. I encourage compassion and mindfulness strategies as part of a holistic approach to mental health and wellness.
