About Justina

Justina Janda is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina with seven years of experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, trauma and grief, and helps with relationship and intimacy-related issues. She also supports clients dealing with parenting strain, career questions, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Her background combines several therapy approaches. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and to try new responses. She also draws on attachment-based work to look at relationship patterns and on client-centered methods to keep the focus on each person's concerns.

Sessions are practical and conversational. She listens to what is happening now, traces patterns that keep problems going, and introduces straightforward skills to change those patterns. Mindfulness exercises are used at times to increase awareness of emotions, body sensations, and reactions.

Justina pays attention to spiritual beliefs when clients want that included. She aims to integrate a person's values and meaning into the plan for therapy, without assuming any single worldview. Her approach is flexible - she adjusts methods based on what a client needs and what seems to help.

Outside of clinical work she spends time with her toddler and gardens. Those everyday activities influence how she thinks about stress, caregiving, and practical coping strategies.

How her approaches translate to online work

Justina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and then practice new, concrete responses. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions to change. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns formed early in life and how they show up in current relationships; it helps people understand reaction patterns and try different ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the therapist's focus on the client's perspective and priorities, helping people set goals and voice what matters most.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That might mean starting with CBT skills, bringing in attachment-focused exploration, or prioritizing the client's stated concerns as the sessions evolve.

Confirm current session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Phone or video sessions can be chosen later based on what works best for practical needs such as having a quieter environment or avoiding video for some sessions.
