About Justina
Justina Janda is an LCMHC practicing in North Carolina who brings seven years of clinical experience to her work. She approaches counseling from a holistic, compassionate, and nonjudgmental stance, blending evidence-informed techniques with attention to a client's spiritual perspective when relevant.
Background and approach
Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help clients notice emotions, bodily sensations, and thought patterns that shape behavior. Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting and fatherhood concerns, career questions, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.
She also works with issues tied to attachment, abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and end-of-life and hospice-related matters. Sessions are individualized so that therapeutic work aligns with each person’s values, goals, and life context.
Outside of work she spends time with her toddler, gardens, and reads about the intersections of psychology and spirituality, interests that inform a curious and grounded clinical style. She aims to create a space where clients feel seen and collaborate on practical strategies and deeper exploration to support growth and coping.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Justina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relational patterns influence current relationships and emotional responses, which can be useful for intimacy, abandonment, and family-of-origin issues. Client-Centered Therapy forms a grounding presence in her practice by prioritizing a respectful, empathetic relationship where the client's perspective guides the work.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with clients to clarify goals and preferences, and then tailors techniques from these traditions to fit each person’s needs. This collaborative stance helps clients feel involved in shaping the focus and pace of therapy.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to work around busy schedules, caregiving demands, or geographic limitations. These formats allow clients to access licensed professionals from their homes or other convenient locations while still engaging in structured therapeutic work and practical skill-building.
