Hi! I’m Jana (she/her). I’m originally from Barcelona, but since 2012 I’ve been lucky to call a beautiful corner of West Cork home.
My path into psychotherapy was shaped by my own lived experiences—through loss, grief, trauma, and the many ups and downs that come with life’s big transitions. These moments led me to study Psychology, and eventually complete a Master’s in Psychotherapy.
Becoming a mother was another turning point for me. It opened my eyes to the emotional intensity of the perinatal period, and inspired me to specialise in Perinatal Mental Health—so I can offer the kind of support I wish I’d had during that time.
I hold a BSc (Hons) in Psychology, a Postgraduate Diploma in Clinical and Health Psychology, and a Master of Arts in Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling.
I have also done CPD and certified trainings in:
Perinatal Mental Health
Birth Trauma Resolution Therapy
Trauma Informed Care
Traumatic Grief
Compassion Focused Therapy
Anxiety
Diversity in the Therapy Room
Mindfulness
CBT
Support after a miscarriage or Infant Loss
I am a member of the Association of Professional Counsellors & Psychotherapists in Ireland (APCP)
