Janika Williams

Founder · Licensed Therapist

Janika founded Poplar Belief because too many quiet stories were going untold. She works with the people most likely to say they're "fine", the ones holding it together for everyone else, the ones whose nervous systems are doing more than anyone notices.

Therapy here isn't about diagnosing what's wrong with you. It's about hearing what's actually happening, and then doing the slow work of building something different from the inside.

"If you're reading this and feel like you should already have it figured out, you don't. You can just come as you are."

Sahreah Donato

Client Care Coordinator

Your first point of contact for booking, intake paperwork, scheduling, billing questions, and anything administrative. Sahreah makes sure the work between sessions never falls on you, so you can show up to therapy focused on the work itself.
