About Dennice

Dennice Janz is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in Washington. She brings 24 years of clinical experience and a background in psychocounseling and life coaching. Her work focuses on practical changes people can use in daily life. She sees issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, anger, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy challenges, parenting strain, self-esteem, bipolar concerns, and coping with life changes.

Dennice creates a warm and interactive space. She treats people with respect and compassion and avoids stigmatizing labels. Sessions are conversational and tailored to each person’s situation. She mixes methods to fit the client rather than following a single script.

Her approach draws on client-centered and cognitive-behavioral ideas alongside mindfulness and solution-focused practices. She also uses elements of the Gottman Method when relationship patterns are part of the work. That mix lets her balance practical skill-building with attention to feelings and values.

Clients can expect straightforward sessions that identify small, manageable steps between meetings. Dennice often helps people spot unhelpful patterns and practice alternatives in real life. She emphasizes collaboration and clear goals so progress can be tracked.

If someone is ready to try a different way of coping, she offers steady guidance and support through the process. The first step is a short matching and scheduling process to begin planning care.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-centered therapy emphasizes the person’s own goals and pace. It focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people find their own solutions. This approach is useful for building trust and clarifying what someone hopes to change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills and experiments to test new ways of thinking and behaving, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dennice collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit best. Goals, preferences, and everyday demands guide how techniques are mixed during treatment.

For online therapy, confirm the session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time and making scheduling easier. Online meetings can support skills practice between sessions and allow therapists to check progress and adjust plans in real time. Ask about session timing and structure when you schedule so sessions match your routine.
