Sana Mind & Soul was founded by Taina Andújar, MA, LMHC, LPC, with a mission to de-stigmatize mental health in black and brown communities. Rooted in cultural awareness and clinical expertise, Sana Mind & Soul provides therapy that honors lived experiences while equipping clients with tools to heal and thrive.

Our approach blends research-based interventions with eco-therapy practices—such as mindfulness in nature, breathwork, and grounding exercises—that help clients reconnect with their environment even within the fast-paced urban landscape of downtown Jersey City and New York City.

We specialize in trauma-focused therapy to address generational wounds and personal experiences of adversity, as well as evidence-based treatments for anxiety and depression. Techniques may include cognitive-behavioral strategies, narrative therapy, and somatic practices that restore balance to both mind and body.

At Sana Mind & Soul, therapy is not one-size-fits-all. We create personalized, holistic interventions that empower individuals to break cycles of survival, reclaim their sense of agency, and become the best version of themselves—whether in the heart of the city or in nature-based healing spaces.
