About Justina

Justina Janda is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) who brings seven years of practice to conversations about stress, relationships, and life transitions. She meets people with kindness and an open, nonjudgmental approach. Sessions focus on listening first, then building steps that fit each person's life and goals.

She blends practical skills with an emphasis on how early connections shape current patterns. That means looking at attachment and how it shows up in relationships, as well as teaching concrete tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to manage anxiety and mood. Dialectical behavior skills are used when strong emotions feel overwhelming.

Justina also pays attention to spiritual perspectives when that matters to a client. She uses client-centered principles to keep the work grounded in what the person wants and needs. Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help people notice thoughts, body sensations, and behavior without getting swept up by them.

Her experience includes supporting people through grief, trauma, parenting strain, career concerns, and questions about identity and intimacy. She frames therapy as a partnership where small, steady changes add up over time. Practical homework and simple daily practices are common parts of the work.

Outside the counseling room, she spends time with her toddler, gardens, and studies connections between psychology and spirituality. Those interests shape a calm, curious style that aims to make therapy useful for everyday life.

How these approaches can work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. In plain terms, it helps people see how connection styles affect trust, communication, and closeness in relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers practical skills for anxiety, low mood, and everyday stress by testing unhelpful thoughts and practicing small behavioral changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with the client to figure out which methods fit the person's needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean mixing approaches and adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, and let people join from different locations within the same state. The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Licensed professionals can use video, phone, or messaging in different ways, and this therapist will discuss what works best for scheduling and comfort.
