About Jana

Jana Pruett is a Georgia-licensed clinical social worker who supports people navigating stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and depression.

Background and approach

She brings three years of professional experience to her practice and focuses on helping clients explore patterns that contribute to mood and interpersonal struggles, including control issues, divorce and separation, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and phobia, and women's issues. Her style emphasizes a collaborative, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can talk openly about thoughts and feelings.

Jana draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness practices, Motivational Interviewing, and Internal Family Systems to tailor strategies that fit each person's needs. She encourages small, achievable steps toward meaningful change while attending to emotional safety and personal values.

Clients who work with Jana can expect supportive guidance through challenging transitions and recurring concerns. She aims to meet people where they are, help clarify goals, and offer practical tools and reflections that promote clearer thinking and steadier coping over time.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online care

Jana often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood through structured, goal-oriented steps. She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and build psychological flexibility by learning to accept difficult emotions while committing to meaningful action.

Choosing the most useful approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and adapt techniques from CBT, ACT, mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, or Internal Family Systems as appropriate to find the best fit for each person.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule care around daily life and maintain continuity during transitions. These formats can support ongoing skill practice, check-ins between sessions, and steady progress while accommodating different communication styles and logistical needs.
