Marriage counseling that Heals in Interlaken, CA. Restore Your Relationship.

It is so important to find a therapist who has specialized training. I have trained in a range of approaches including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Somatic Experiencing (SE), EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

Family and marriage relationships need care, nurturing, and goodwill in order to successfully navigate the challenges of being in relationship. Being honest about our needs and wants is essential to being in relationship without resentments building.

Each relationship is unique! With time and effort, you will develop healthier habits and and stronger connections.

Conflict is your roadmap to intimacy, without conflict, one or both partners in the relationship suppress their needs, wants, and desires and don't truly know each other. At Growth and Change Counseling, we put relationships on the rocks back together.

Marriages can be saved with commitment to counseling and diligent work. I've helped hundreds of couples over 20 years of experience. I use a practical/spiritual approach regarding communication, marital needs, intimacy, trust, healing. Give me a call!

I offer three models of marriage counseling: Traditional, Solo and Guided. Traditional, both partners come to therapy, Solo, only one partner comes to therapy and Guided, Janice guides couples through her book, Framework Marriage Counseling.

Premarital Therapy is the most requested form of couples therapy in my practice. Addressing issues that often don't develop until after marriage and providing conflict resolution tools to the couple to support healthy communication assists reducing future conflicts.

I believe who we are, how we regard ourselves & others, & how we view the world comes from our earliest relationships and experiences. Understanding the impact of these, & how it shows up today, allows the ability to change & heal within.

I work with couples who seem to be locked in emotional cycles that are difficult to understand and to break out of. You can improve your communication and become emotionally focused and intimate with your partner by learning to speak openly and listen non-defensively.

I work with couples to help them identify relationship goals and learn better communication and problem-solving skills so they can create a relationship in which both partners feel understood, appreciated, respected, and loved.

When working with couples and families I hold the space for each person in the room to provide the safety to discuss even difficult issues. I use IFS, and EMDR to deepen each individual's experiences when beneficial. My approach is based on family systems theory.

Rooted in attachment, neurobiology, and client-centered work, I use experiential methods to help those who feel disconnected from others and themselves find the link playfully back to being in relationship. I serve children, adolescents, and adult individuals.
