About Janice
Janice Loboda is a licensed professional clinical counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and parenting challenges. She supports those dealing with addiction, trauma, grief, anger, depression, ADHD and self-esteem struggles. Her plain, practical style is aimed at people who want clear tools and steady support.
Janice started her career working in inpatient and outpatient substance abuse programs. She gained hands-on experience helping people and adolescents in recovery. That early work shaped how she approaches addictive behavior and family stress now.
How Janice works
She later opened a independent practice focused on parents and family concerns. She helps parents manage parenting strain and works with them to navigate schools and 504 or IEP accommodations for a child's learning and emotional needs. Janice also spent time as an employee assistance program counselor supporting working adults facing career stress and burnout.
Across settings she uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people make changes that matter day to day. She aims to make sessions straightforward and goal-oriented while attending to relationships and attachment patterns. Clients can expect calm guidance, skills to manage strong emotions, and steps to move toward clearer purpose.
Janice holds a California LPCC credential and has practiced for 15 years. Her work combines clinical approaches such as acceptance and commitment techniques, cognitive behavioral tools, and attachment-focused methods to fit each person’s goals.

Online support options
Approach and convenience for online therapy
Janice commonly uses acceptance and commitment techniques and attachment-based work when helping people change patterns that cause suffering. Acceptance and commitment approaches focus on identifying what matters and taking small actions toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and helps people create safer, more reliable ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, daily challenges, and personal preferences and then recommend strategies that fit. That collaborative process means methods can shift as needs change over time.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat or text messaging can work for brief check-ins, practicing skills, or when someone prefers written communication. These options make attending weekly work or fitting therapy into a packed schedule more manageable.
