I'm Janice LaFountaine, LMFT. I work with individuals and couples throughout Washington and Idaho through secure telehealth. I also offer in-person sessions at my Chattaroy home office near Spokane.

Maybe you've learned that getting close to people feels dangerous. Or that trusting your own needs is somehow selfish. Perhaps you're rebuilding after leaving a high-control group or manipulative relationship, wondering if you'll ever feel like yourself again. Or you're in a relationship you want to save, but the old patterns keep winning.

You may understand what happened and still find yourself bracing for the next argument, questioning your own judgment, or pulling away when you want to feel close. Understanding the pattern matters, but it doesn't always make the pattern easier to change.

I offer trauma and couples therapy, including specialized support for people recovering from coercive control and religious trauma. You can read more about my experience, training, and approach on the About page.

Whether you're working through trauma or trying to reconnect as a couple, we begin with what matters to you. You decide what to share, and we find a pace that feels manageable together.
