About Janice

Janice Loboda, LPCC, helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress or anxiety. She works with adults facing relationship strain, parenting pressure, addiction concerns, grief, workplace burnout, and questions about life purpose. Her style is calm and direct, aimed at practical change rather than long lectures.

Janice began her career in inpatient and outpatient addiction treatment. She spent years supporting people through recovery and assisting teens and parents during that time.

Background and approach

Later she opened a independent practice where she focused on parenting challenges, family stress, and coordinating with schools on educational supports like 504 and IEP plans. She has also worked as an employee assistance counselor for professionals. In that role Janice helped people manage career stress, overcome barriers at work, and recover from burnout so they could reconnect with meaningful goals.

That experience guides how she helps clients balance job demands and personal life. Her approach draws on practical therapies such as cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and strategies from acceptance and commitment work. She emphasizes skills people can use between sessions to reduce worry and improve mood.

Sessions typically focus on clear steps and behaviors that lead to small measurable improvements. Janice brings 15 years of clinical experience and holds the LPCC credential in California. She conducts sessions in English and offers multiple online formats to fit busy lives.

The first step is a short questionnaire to match needs and schedule an appointment.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values, then taking actions that match what matters most. It can help with anxiety, stress, and feeling stuck by shifting attention toward meaningful steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. CBT is useful for worry, panic, depression, and workplace stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help people repair how they relate to others and manage relationship anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janice collaborates with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. She checks in regularly and adjusts strategies so the approach stays practical and relevant.

Online sessions can make consistent care easier to keep. Video calls let therapists and clients use visual cues and worksheets during a session. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill reminders, and continuing momentum between longer sessions.
