Jinan Amra

Jinan Amra is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps adults manage stress, anxiety, career questions, and life transitions. She speaks English, Spanish, and Arabic and approaches work with warmth and a non-judgmental manner. Her practice focuses on short-term, solution-oriented work that aims to get practical change moving quickly.

She uses collaborative conversations to identify what matters most and to set clear, achievable goals. Sessions look at strengths, past successes, and small steps that build momentum. Jinan pays close attention to each person's story and adapts how she works to fit the individual rather than using one fixed method.

Her background includes a master’s degree from Nova Southeastern University, and she holds licensure as a marriage and family therapist in Florida and Texas. With 16 years in the field, she draws on a mix of approaches such as acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavior techniques, and mindfulness practices to support change.

Clients can expect direct, empathetic listening and concrete tools for coping with things like grief, relationship strain, anger, and self-esteem concerns. She also addresses career-related stress and parenting challenges through practical coaching and planning.

Jinan describes herself as curious about people and their resources. She often frames work around existing strengths and small, testable actions so clients can see progress even when situations feel stuck.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Jinan commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking steps that match what matters to the client, which can help with career decisions, relationship priorities, and coping with loss. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, often useful for anxiety, depression, and anger. Mindfulness techniques are also used to build present-moment awareness and calm, which supports stress management and emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. The therapist discusses goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked before, then adapts methods to fit the client's needs. This collaborative stance helps clients try methods and adjust them over time rather than committing to a single label up front.

Confirm the session formats available before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce commute time, and allow short check-ins or longer weekly sessions depending on scheduling. It also allows continued work during life transitions and for people who live far from a clinician, while the therapist and client will agree on a practical plan for scheduling and follow-up.
