Through individual therapy and DBT group services, Anna* began building practical tools to better manage her symptoms. She learned grounding techniques, emotional regulation strategies, and somatic skills to calm her nervous system. Week by week, she practiced applying these tools in real-life situations, slowly gaining confidence and stability.
Over time, meaningful change began to take root.
Today, Anna feels more equipped to manage her anxiety and depression. She has strengthened her ability to set healthy boundaries, improving her relationships while deepening her understanding of herself. Situations that once felt overwhelming now feel manageable. Most importantly, she feels empowered—confident she has the skills to continue moving forward long after therapy ends.
Anna’s story is a powerful reminder that healing is possible with the right support.
Access to mental health care shouldn’t depend on financial circumstances. With Medicaid now accepted at JFS, more individuals and families can receive the high-quality support they deserve. We’re proud to help make care more accessible across our community.
