Professional statement

Jane Mizrahi is a licensed, independent clinical social worker & founder of GroupsWorks, offering individual, LGBTQIA affirmative psychotherapy sessions via tele health. She works with older teens, adults and older adults. She often serves clients who've experienced complex childhood trauma, as well as individuals whose symptoms seem to be interfering with living their best life. She addresses existential angst & grief & always considers macro issues (poverty, racism, transphobia). Jane now serves clients who have experienced cult and cult like experiences.

Jane inspires her clients to learn how their body holds their story, how to build mastery over their autonomic nervous system, and their relationship to power & powerlessness (relationships). She uses modalities of dialectical behavioral therapy, existentialism, mindfulness, healthy communication strategies (Nonviolent Communication), and Internal Family Systems, and considers navigating the therapeutic relationship paramount in healing. Jane offers wellness strategies for her clients and emphasizes the power of hope, presence, self-compassion, and the mind-body connection. If it's right for you, she will demonstrate body mind practices in your session.

Jane earned her Masters in Social Work from Rhode Island College in 2011 and previously served as the Clinical Director of Residential Services at Child & Family Services. She is a part time Clinical supervisor at Fuller Hospital and offers a monthly online clinical supervision group for psychotherapists.

Jane's approach is authentic, flexible and dynamic in order to best meet the needs of her clients.

She enjoys bearing witness to her clients' successes as they transform their historic & current pain through their journey.

Jane penned Choreograph Your Wellness, a mental health wellness guide, published on Kindle. The guide can be a helpful supplement to your therapy process. She also created a Youtube Channel (Choreograph Your Wellness with Jane Mizrahi) offering short videos on mind body wellness teachings.


Message to clients

In our sessions, we will work at your pace. We'll work to make sense of your story, and learn how your life experiences contribute to your present day life patterns, especially the patterns that no longer serve you, patterns in relationship, patterns in relationship to Self.

I can offer you skills to help you live with more ease in the present moment in mind, body, and spirit, if you’re interested. I can help you work with guilt, shame and overwhelming emotions and help you move into a future you desire. A desire filled with more hope, strength, freedom, and contentment in Self and Self/Other.

Life is a journey with both pain and pleasure. Let's help you access more pleasure. By practicing new, more adaptive life skills (over and again), you create new (neural) pathways, pathways of wellness! Let's put one foot in front of the other and start this journey together. Welcome!

Client testimonials

"Jane, as a facilitator, brought a joyful spirit to every group that I have been privileged to be involved in with her. I, along with many of my peers in a short-term psychiatric facility, always looked forward to the days when we knew Jane would be on staff. The groups she facilitated were so varied and based on the needs of the clients at any given time. Some groups Jane facilitated were dynamic and empowering while others were soothing and restful. Jane has a natural talent for seeing the needs of individuals and groups and being able to adapt to those needs quickly. She is a perfect combination of enthusiasm and gentleness. When I learned that Jane would be offering group programs in a private practice I signed up immediately. I knew that her passion for individuals’ personal healing and journeys would be of great benefit to me as I continue in my recovery."
