about Jana
Jana Lehman, LCPC, LAC, SEP
I’m a Somatic Psychotherapist and I offer body-based trauma healing including nervous system regulation and embodiment support. I have a MS in Health and Human Development & Mental Health Counseling as well as extensive training in a variety of somatic, holistic approaches. I am a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner (SEP), and have trained in BASE, Somatic Resilience and Regulation (SRR), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, EMDR, and Natural Processing.
I believe that everyone has the potential to heal, grow, change, and live a life of purpose and meaning. I offer an accepting, nonjudgmental environment and I aim to meet people where ever they are in life. I believe my warm, genuine nature helps to create a strong therapeutic relationship that can foster the growth many are looking for. My specialty is in trauma healing, which includes working with symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and unhealthy patterns or addiction. My hope is to help people reconnect to their body as part of the healing process, shifting towards ways to thrive rather than just survive their experience.
how it started
“I felt the power of healing through connection to my body, and I wanted to share that with others.”
My approach to this work in grounded in my own ongoing healing journey through complex trauma and chronic illness. This has inspired my passion for helping others find their way back to themselves as well. I believe when we connect and listen to our body, we can tap into deep wisdom, guidance, and wholeness. My hope is to guide and support people in reconnecting to their body, weaving together all parts of experience including mind, body, spirit, community, and environment. We can learn to honor and celebrate all of our parts, finding understanding that all our symptoms, emotions, responses, and behaviors have developed for a very good reason. And we can learn to listen to our body, bringing attention, care, and healing to all of our parts..
Some of my foundational beliefs
01
Our bodies are amazing and intelligent. All the parts and systems and emotions and sensations make sense, and are there with purpose. All bodies are welcome here.
02
I lead with curiosity. While I understand the nuanced intricacies and complexities of trauma, I believe that you know yourself best. I’m here to help your reconnect to all your parts. I have much to learn from you and your experiences.
03
This work is not about fixing. I do not believe you are broken. (I do believe you may feel that way though.) This work is about feeling deeply seen, heard, and understood. It’s about building trust and safety in your body, so you can return to your essence, find ease, and be all of you.
we are meant to heal together…
