About Janita
Janita Ramar is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with 11 years of experience. She works with people who struggle with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, substance use, stress, trauma, relationship issues, and related concerns such as codependency and communication problems.
Janita starts by building a straightforward working relationship. She focuses on trust and clear communication first. Together with the client she sets goals that match the client's needs and preferences. Sessions are collaborative and practical rather than lecture-based.
She uses person-centered methods that emphasize the client's strengths. She also draws on solution-focused ideas to break problems into concrete steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to identify unhelpful thinking and try small experiments to change behavior.
Janita talks with clients about which approaches might fit their situation. She encourages people to take an active role in their treatment and to practice skills between sessions. Progress is often measured in small, achievable changes instead of big promises.
People who come to her report help with mood regulation, stopping or reducing substance use, coping with grief or life changes, and improving sleep or daily functioning. Her work also addresses intimacy issues, work stress, anger, and ADHD-related challenges. If you want to see how her way of working could fit your situation, follow the steps to schedule an introductory session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Janita commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. ACT helps people focus on what matters to them and take small actions even when feelings are difficult, which often suits stress, anxiety, and codependency patterns. CBT works on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments, useful for mood problems, panic, and sleep issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She discusses different methods with each client and decides together which fits the person's goals, needs, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress continues so the plan can change if needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins can fit a work break, and sessions without video can reduce bandwidth needs. Licensed professionals can use therapy time for skill practice, goal setting, and troubleshooting real-life situations, helping you apply what you talk about between sessions.
