About Jinan

Jinan Amra is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 16 years of clinical experience. She is licensed in Florida and Texas and works mainly with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, relationships, anger, low self-esteem, depression, grief, trauma and parenting concerns.

She describes her practice as brief, systemic and solution-oriented. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals. She pays attention to each person’s story and strengths while helping them name what feels most urgent.

Her work brings together techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, and narrative approaches. That mix supports learning new skills, shifting unhelpful patterns, and making sense of past experiences that still affect day-to-day life.

Amra speaks English, Spanish and Arabic and maintains a general adult practice. She says she prefers to work collaboratively, setting goals with clients and developing concrete plans to address relationship strain, career stress, identity questions and life transitions.

Her stated view is that people have internal resources to help resolve problems. In sessions she listens for those strengths, checks what matters most to the client, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. The focus is on manageable change rather than lengthy theory or abstract discussion.

Approaches used online and what they do

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clarify what matters to a person and builds actions that match those values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and practicing practical techniques to change them. It often helps with mood, worry and stressful life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to test methods, review what helps, and adjust the plan based on goals and preferences. Sessions can combine techniques so the client learns skills and also makes sense of personal history when needed.

Confirm the session formats before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so clients can meet around work or study commitments. Therapists and licensed professionals will discuss session length and cadence to match the client’s everyday life.
