About Janice
Janice Loboda is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, anger, relationship and family concerns, parenting strains, addiction recovery, grief, and career challenges.
Her early career focused on inpatient and outpatient substance abuse treatment. She spent a lot of time helping teenagers and their caregivers during recovery. That work shaped her practical approach to managing strong emotions and relapse prevention.
Janice later opened a private practice where she supported parents coping with family stress. She helps parents navigate school systems and pursue 504 or IEP accommodations for children who need educational and emotional supports. She also assists caregivers who are handling ongoing care responsibilities and burnout.
As an employee assistance program counselor, she worked with adult professionals on workplace stress, career barriers, and burnout. Her sessions often include problem-solving around job strain and helping people reconnect with a sense of professional purpose.
Her methods include acceptance and commitment approaches, cognitive behavior strategies, attachment-informed work, client-centered talk therapy, and skills-based tools drawn from dialectical behavior approaches. She aims to help people notice unhelpful patterns, try practical behavior changes, and build clearer goals for relationships, parenting, and work.
Therapeutic approaches and how they fit with online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting swept up by them. It focuses on values and small committed actions, which can be useful for anger that comes from frustration or feeling stuck.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers concrete techniques to test unhelpful beliefs, reframe thinking, and change behavioral responses to triggers such as workplace stress or family conflict.
Attachment-Based Therapy examines patterns in close relationships and how they shape reactions under stress. This can help when anger is tied to relationship history or caregiving roles.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions often mix talk, skills practice, and short exercises to test new ways of responding to anger.
