Dr. Jana Price-Sharps brings over two decades of clinical expertise to help people navigate life's hardest chapters — and build something better on the other side.
About Dr. Jana
Dr. Jana Price-Sharps has spent over two decades working with some of the most resilient — and most pressured — people on the planet. That experience has given her a rare, grounded perspective on what it actually takes for a person to change, grow, and thrive.
As a licensed psychologist, she has led training, therapy, and crisis support programs across California, served as a professor of forensic psychology, and co-authored Beyond Survival: Pilot Your Own Brain — a resiliency guide built on real neuroscience, not platitudes.
She is the CEO and Founder of the California Forensic Institute (CFI) and President of SERI, a non-profit dedicated to mental health support in high-stress professions. She also hosts the Mind Pilot podcast, where she makes the science of the brain accessible to anyone willing to listen.
Now, Dr. Jana is bringing that same depth of knowledge and directness to a broader audience. Whether you're navigating a major life transition, feeling stuck, or simply ready for something more — the tools she's used with people in the hardest circumstances of their lives work just as powerfully in everyday ones.
New Book
For First Responders & Combat VeteransCo-authored with Dr. Matthew Sharps, this resiliency guide is written specifically for first responders and combat veterans — the people who face extraordinary stress as part of ordinary duty.
Beyond Survival translates cutting-edge neuroscience and clinical psychology into practical strategies that readers can actually use. It's not about white-knuckling through trauma — it's about learning to pilot your own brain so you can live fully, not just survive.
