About Janice

Janice Miles is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and sexual concerns including sexual dysfunction. She often works with clients facing trauma, grief, parenting challenges, and questions about sexuality and identity. Her approach is practical and direct, aimed at small steps that make daily life feel more manageable.

Janice draws on 14 years of clinical experience across in-home, inpatient, and outpatient settings. She uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, and trauma-focused methods to match the work to each person’s goals. Sessions focus on clear goals, skill building, and real-world strategies that clients can try between meetings.

She prioritizes a nonjudgmental relationship where people can talk openly about intimacy, kink, polyamory, and other sensitive topics. Conversations are meant to help people name what’s happening, practice new ways of communicating, and rebuild confidence after distressing experiences. Janice also supports people dealing with bipolar mood patterns and ongoing coping with life changes.

Her training includes a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy and additional graduate study in human sexuality. Janice combines clinical knowledge with practical tools to help people make steady progress toward clearer goals and healthier patterns.

If someone wants to start, Janice asks them to describe their current problems and what they hope will change. From there she and the client set clear steps and regular check-ins to track progress.

How Janice's Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Janice commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT sessions focus on concrete tools such as thought records, behavioral experiments, and step-by-step plans for changing daily routines.

She also uses trauma-focused therapy to address effects of past abuse or assault. This work moves at a pace set by the client and centers on stabilizing symptoms, building coping skills, and gradually processing distressing memories when the client is ready.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Janice will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and adapt methods as therapy progresses so the work fits what the person needs.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals including therapists can tailor session length and focus to match what’s most useful for each person.
