About Janina
Janina Green is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 20 years of experience supporting people through tough moments. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and compassion fatigue. Her work also addresses communication problems, forgiveness, life purpose, self-love, and social anxiety and phobia.
She keeps sessions relaxed and straightforward. Clients set the pace and decide what feels most useful. Janina listens, asks practical questions, and helps people try new ways of coping that fit their day-to-day life.
How Janina works
Her practice uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to shape each session. That means she pulls from approaches that have been shown to help with mood and anxiety concerns. Treatment is shaped around a person’s goals, not a one-size-fits-all plan.
Janina describes her style as supportive, easy-going, and thought-provoking. She aims to create a collaborative space where people feel heard and gain confidence. Work in therapy can include learning new coping skills, improving communication, and clarifying life direction.
People who reach out can expect straightforward planning and practical steps between sessions. The emphasis is on small, manageable changes that add up over time. Janina works from the District of Columbia and conducts sessions in English.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Janina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and problem solving. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. Client-centered methods concentrate on listening, validation, and building a respectful relationship so people feel understood and can set their own goals.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Janina will collaborate with each person to match techniques to their needs, goals, and preferences. That process may involve trying different methods and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking, as the biography does not specify which formats are used. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits scheduling needs. Many people find remote work helps them keep continuity of care and practice new skills between sessions without major changes to their routine.
