02 · In Janina's own words

What Janina says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

As a Licensed Clinical Therapist with more than 20 years of experience, I have worked with children, adolescents, and young adults facing a variety of challenges, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and significant life transitions.

My therapeutic approach is supportive, easy-going, and thought-provoking. I believe that clients should set the pace of their treatment, and I strive to create a safe, collaborative environment where they feel heard and empowered. I utilize evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT). Every session is tailored to each client's unique needs, goals, and treatment plan.

Taking the first step toward therapy is a meaningful accomplishment. Therapy can provide clarity, guidance, and the confidence needed to navigate life's challenges and create lasting change. My role is to support, encourage, and empower you throughout that journey. I look forward to working with you.

03 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Janina practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Janina's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

  1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

    BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Janina at this point.

  2. Naming Janina specifically

    BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Janina is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Janina.

  3. If the caseload is full

    You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

  4. The first conversation

    A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

  5. If the fit is wrong

    Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

04 · Before you commit

2 questions worth asking Janina

Built from what Janina actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Janina's - Janina has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

  • “With 20 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”

    Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.

  • “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

    On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

06 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Janina's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 10 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Janina. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
