Janet Aworinde

My communication style

My style is flexible and adaptive. I can be direct with constructive feedback while remaining supportive. Working with me feels like working with a friend who is empathic and warm, yet calm and grounded during moments of despair.

My journey to mental healthcare

Growing up without access to mental health care shaped how I view the world. Mental health struggles were often minimized and discounted. As I grew older, I realized the importance of emotional health and the gaps in understanding within the community. This sparked a desire to create spaces where others feel safe seeking support.

My goals for you

I create goals that speak to your strengths by establishing trust and rapport. Goal setting is based on principles that reflect your values, abilities, resources, concerns, and hopes.

Our first session

During the first session, I will explain my role in our therapeutic alliance and your role in therapy. We will discuss your presenting issues, establish goals, and outline the therapeutic process. You will have the opportunity to ask questions about any concerns you may have.

I identify as...

• Female
• Black or African American
• Christian, Non-denominational
