Jana Al-nahhas

Jana Al-nahhas, a Licensed Professional Counselor (MS, LPC), understands that individuals often seek therapy during pivotal moments of change in their lives. Many clients find themselves caught in cycles of progress and regression, leading to feelings of burnout and shame. Jana is deeply committed to helping her clients defuse that shame and cultivate a healing environment. She believes that all behaviors are understandable within the context of one’s life experiences and employs a values-based approach to foster meaningful change. Throughout therapy, she collaborates with clients to identify personal values and examine their alignment with current life situations. Through her empathetic and compassionate practice, Jana guides clients to develop skills and build essential internal resources to achieve their goals. Utilizing techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and body-based therapies, she provides a humanistic and trauma-informed perspective in her sessions. Acknowledging the significant impact of adverse experiences, including childhood trauma, racism, and discrimination, Jana empowers her clients, holding up a mirror that reflects their unique goals and values.
