About Janice

LMFT in California with 7 years of clinical experience, Janice Hunter helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and major life changes. She focuses on practical support for problems such as divorce and separation, domestic violence recovery, guilt and shame, and workplace strains. Sessions are conducted in English.

Janice treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. She aims to make starting therapy straightforward and direct. The first meeting typically clarifies immediate concerns and practical next steps.

Her work addresses both recent losses and longer-standing patterns that keep people stuck. She talks through strategies for coping with strong emotions and for making safer choices after abuse or relationship breakdown. Janice also helps people process grief and the practical changes that follow separation.

She pays attention to multicultural concerns and experiences of prejudice and discrimination. Conversations include how identity and context affect stress and recovery. Janice supports people who want to strengthen self-regard and forgiveness, and those dealing with shame.

Sessions focus on clear, manageable goals. Janice uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to reduce distress and improve everyday functioning. She asks about priorities, suggests skills to try between meetings, and adjusts plans as needs change.

To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time, and fees vary by location.

Evidence-based approaches and how they work online

Janice uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address stress, anxiety, trauma, and grief. One common approach she uses focuses on identifying patterns that maintain distress and teaching practical coping skills to interrupt those patterns; this approach helps with daily anxiety and workplace stress. Another approach centers on processing difficult experiences and reducing their emotional hold through gradual, supported discussion; this is useful for trauma, abuse recovery, and complicated grief.

Choosing which approach to use is part of the work. Janice collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals and comfort. She reviews what has helped in the past, suggests small experiments, and adjusts methods as progress is made.

In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and remove the need to travel to appointments. These practical benefits can help people try skills between meetings and maintain momentum while handling life responsibilities.
