About Janisse
Janisse Rothford is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 10 years of experience. She practices in Nevada and helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, anger, and self-esteem concerns.
Janisse spent several years working with military families, which shaped how she approaches communication and relationship stress. She focuses on clear, practical conversations rather than jargon. Sessions look at what is happening now and what small changes could reduce tension and reactivity.
Her work draws on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral techniques to notice patterns of thought and behavior. She also uses dialectical behavior skills and mindfulness practices to build emotional regulation and reduce impulsive reactions. Where relationships are strained she pulls in elements of the Gottman Method to address communication and trust.
Janisse aims to be straightforward in sessions. She helps people learn skills for managing anger, improving difficult conversations, and coping with loss or life transitions. She supports work on midlife concerns, self-love, isolation, and finding greater purpose.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule the first session. She works in English and does not take international clients. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on clear listening and practical conversation. It helps people feel heard and develop their own solutions when dealing with anger, grief, or relationship strain. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches specific skills to change them. CBT is useful for anxiety, anger reactivity, and repetitive negative thinking.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills are helpful when strong reactions or relationship conflict are a concern. Together these approaches give both understanding and hands-on tools to reduce reactivity and improve communication.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose techniques that match goals, preferences, and what comes up in sessions. That collaborative approach means plans can shift as different needs become clearer.
Confirm available session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online sessions often make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow brief check-ins when needed, and avoid commute time. Some formats require less bandwidth or offer shorter focused visits, which can help when someone needs a practical skills check or a quick de-escalation strategy.
