Janna Lynn Vanderband is a dedicated art therapist who understands the profound changes that accompany pregnancy and postpartum experiences. Many new parents find themselves grappling with feelings of inadequacy, often influenced by the idealized portrayals of parenthood on social media. As their lives shift dramatically, feelings of anxiety, anger, and sadness may arise, leaving them questioning their happiness. Janna recognizes that changes in one’s body and the responsibility of nurturing a child can create a sense of disconnection and even trauma from their birth experience. In her warm and supportive practice, she creates a safe haven where individuals can feel heard and seen. Through art therapy, clients have the opportunity to reconnect with themselves, their babies, and their partners in a tangible way. Janna utilizes various art materials and techniques to facilitate self-expression and understanding, helping clients find safety amidst emotional turbulence. With her clinical knowledge and creativity, she invites clients to embrace their unique journey without needing to identify as particularly creative. Instead, all that is required is a willingness to explore new possibilities. Janna is a nationally registered art therapist, committed to guiding individuals on their path toward emotional healing and personal discovery.
