Jette Warka

My communication style

Open communication is a cornerstone of psychotherapy. I will be an active listener, but I will provide feedback throughout our work together. You can expect my feedback to be empathic, but I will also challenge your assumptions as needed. If you bring difficult issues to your sessions, I will be there to listen calmly and empathetically.

My journey to mental healthcare

I used to be a preschool teacher, and I became fascinated with human development. I set out to become a child psychologist. However, as a psychologist for the last 25 years, I worked mostly with adults with severe mental illnesses in an inpatient setting. No matter where I have worked, I have focused on resiliency, growth, and acceptance.

My goals for you

We will set goals together and work on your most important goals. Whether your goals include management of mental health symptom, improving relationships, or personal growth, we will work together to accomplish your goals. Your goals may change as you progress on your journey, and we will make adjustments as needed.

Our first session

During our first session, I will ask a lot of questions to get to know you better and to understand the issue(s) that made you chose therapy at this time. We will move at your pace, and you can ask me questions as well. My goal is for us to work together to accomplish your therapy goals and for you to live a more fulfilled and happier life.
