Jana began her career working with children and families struggling with mental health issues. She worked in a variety of settings including in-home therapy, outpatient therapy, day treatment, and residential care. As a result of this experience, she founded Supportive Solutions in 2006 to support people managing depression, anxiety, substance abuse, trauma and abuse, fertility challenges, and grief.
Special interests include healing trauma, substance abuse, and Perinatal Mental Health including fertility challenges, miscarriage, difficult births, anxiety and pre and postpartum depression.
Jana is acutely aware of the challenges that can accompany individuals and couples on their journey to become parent(s). She struggled with fertility challenges for over three years that included multiple miscarriages, surgeries and invasive reproductive assistance interventions, hospital bedrest, a difficult birth, NICU stay, as well as postpartum mood challenges. Jana founds healing through family and community support along with Brainspotting therapy. Overcoming these obstacles and challenges, Jana gained a unique ability to understand and empathize with clients still building their desired family. She works with families of all compositions. Jana is passionate about helping to foster hope when faced with situations that appear hopeless.
