Jana
Introduction
I’m Jana, and I’d like to share a bit about myself. I was born and raised in Estonia and have also lived in Sweden before making New Zealand my home. My therapy style is solution focused CBT mixed with other styles I find useful in personal growth.
I offer in-person counselling for individuals and couples from a cozy boathouse studio in central Whangarei, also worldwide online counselling in English, Swedish and Estonian.
My areas of interest include couples therapy, migration and cultural issues, stress and anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, communication difficulties and self-esteem concerns.
I believe that the relationship with oneself is at the core of all human experiences. I am dedicated to supporting you on your journey toward understanding and growth. I look forward to the opportunity to work together.
If you want to know more or make an appointment, feel free to contact me via the Send a message - button.
I look forward to supporting you on your journey.

Five stars, without a doubt
Five stars, without a doubt. I cannot put into words how grateful I am that we met with Jana for relationship counseling. Her expertise and wisdom were invaluable to us while we navigated a difficult patch in our lives.
We would definitely go back to Jana in the future if we ever felt we needed help to get back on track again. I have since been back to Jana individually, for help with something else that I was having trouble putting into order in my mind, and after only two sessions I was able to move forward.
Jana is a strong, yet gentle, intelligent, and very intuitive woman with a beautiful soul. Thank you x
