About Janice
Janice Naranjo is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 15 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and ADHD. She also supports those facing grief, trauma and abuse, career or parenting challenges, relationship concerns, and major life transitions.
Her tone is straightforward and respectful, aimed at people who want clear help and practical steps. Janice uses a conversation-based style that adapts to each person's needs.
Background and approach
She listens first, then works with clients to set concrete goals. Sessions focus on skills that can be used day to day, not just talk. She emphasizes collaboration and treats people with sensitivity and compassion.
Her toolbox includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and actions link to mood and behavior. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, where the person’s experience guides the pace and focus. Solution-Focused Therapy is used for short-term goal-setting and quick coping strategies.
Trauma-Focused Therapy informs work with past hurt when that is part of the story. Janice tailors conversations and plans to each person’s situation. She balances practical techniques with emotional support.
Parents and people juggling many roles will find concrete strategies for daily life. The aim is steady progress and usable skills that fit real routines. Starting therapy can feel hard, and Janice frames that step as a courageous move.
She offers a calm, direct approach and helps people build the tools they need to move forward.
Approaches that guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s experience at the center of sessions. The therapist follows the client’s pace, reflects what is said, and supports self-directed growth. This approach helps when someone needs acceptance and steady support while working through concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises and practice to change unhelpful thinking and build coping skills, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. Choices are made together and adjusted over time based on what helps most. Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, phone sessions fit tight schedules, and live chat or text messaging can be used for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep a steady schedule and bring therapy into everyday life.Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Solution-Focused Therapy
Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
