About Janisse
Janisse Rothford is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with ten years of professional experience. She lists work with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, anger, and self-esteem as primary focuses. Janisse uses practical approaches to help people notice patterns that make problems worse and try different responses.
Before her current work she spent several years supporting military families, which shaped her style and pacing. That background influences how she structures sessions and communicates about difficult topics. She emphasizes clear, respectful conversation and straightforward tools.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She also uses client-centered methods to let the person’s goals guide sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness techniques appear in her work when skills training or emotional regulation are needed.
Janisse pays attention to relationship dynamics and communication problems. She applies elements of the Gottman Method when couples' interaction patterns are part of the concern. She also addresses family problems, isolation, life-purpose questions, midlife transitions, self-love, and issues commonly reported by women.
People can expect grounded, step-by-step conversation that focuses on what to try between sessions. Her stated aim is to make therapy practical and relevant to everyday life. To begin, readers should confirm current session options before booking.
How CBT, client-centered work, and DBT translate to online sessions
Janisse integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered methods, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in straightforward ways. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new responses; it is often used for anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem. Client-centered work centers the person's goals and preferences, letting the session topics come from what the client brings. DBT offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with anger and relationship conflict.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Janisse will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to emphasize and adjust the plan as progress is reviewed.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. Video visits let the therapist and client work through exercises and notice body language, while phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a brief check-in is preferred. Ask about current session options to pick what best fits daily life.
