About Janice

Janice Lorraine Browning is a California-licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with five years of clinical experience who uses evidence-informed approaches to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, while also emphasizing a client-centered stance that prioritizes each person’s goals and values. Her work often addresses self-esteem, motivation, confidence, and challenges related to isolation, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and women’s issues.

She aims to cultivate an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore feelings and thoughts, build coping skills, and set practical steps for change. Janice encourages those taking the first step toward therapy and supports them through the early stages of engagement.

Janice integrates motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies when appropriate to help clients find momentum and clarify actionable goals. Her approach balances compassionate listening with skill-building interventions, helping clients move from insight to meaningful, manageable change.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Janice frequently uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, low mood, and stress, then works with them to practice alternative responses and coping strategies. She also draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathetic listening and aligning treatment with the client's values to create a collaborative, respectful space for change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Janice treats that decision as collaborative. She will discuss client goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then tailor sessions by combining elements of these methods so the work fits each person's needs and pace.

Online therapy with Janice is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to attend regularly, practice skills between sessions, and maintain continuity of care while balancing daily responsibilities.
