Janna Froeming

Marriage & Family Therapist Trainee
Supervised by Darla Gale #92413
Janna Froeming is currently completing her Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy at Touro University Worldwide. She earned her bachelor’s degree in Criminology with a minor in Psychology from Cal Poly Humboldt.
Janna’s passion for helping others is deeply rooted in her own life experiences. After losing her best friend to homicide during college, she was inspired to pursue a career in law enforcement. Years later, a line-of-duty injury and several surgeries changed the direction of her career, leading her to transition from working as a police officer to emergency communications. These experiences gave her a personal understanding of trauma, grief, and the challenges of navigating unexpected life changes.
Through her continued work in law enforcement, Janna realized she wanted to help people before they reached a point of crisis. This inspired her decision to pursue a career in mental health, with the hope of supporting individuals as they face challenges before those struggles become overwhelming.
Janna has a particular interest in working with first responders, law enforcement professionals, and their families, as well as individuals, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, and major life changes.
Janna believes therapy should be a comfortable, judgment-free space where people feel heard, understood, and supported. She values authenticity, open communication, and a little humor along the way. Her goal is to meet clients where they are, recognize their strengths, and help them find practical ways to navigate life’s challenges.
Outside of work and school, Janna enjoys spending time with her family, gardening, hunting, fishing, and backpacking.
