Individual therapy in Santa Rosa
I'm Janice Hoscan, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (CA LMFT #139263) in Santa Rosa, and I work with adults on the things that are hardest to carry alone: anxiety, depression, a hard transition, grief, or long-standing patterns you're ready to understand. I see clients in person across Sonoma County and by telehealth throughout California, and every new client is welcome to start with a free consultation.

What individual therapy can help with
People come to individual therapy for all kinds of reasons: anxiety that won't switch off, a low mood that's outstayed its welcome, a big transition (a move, a job, a diagnosis, a relationship ending), grief, or the sense of repeating a pattern they can't quite name. You don't need to be in crisis to begin, and you don't have to have it figured out before you start.
How we'll work together
My style is warm, direct, and collaborative. Alongside talk therapy I'm trained in Brainspotting, and I draw on psychodynamic and mindfulness-based approaches, shaping the work around you rather than a formula. Whether you want relief from something specific or a deeper look at long-standing patterns, you set the direction and we go at it together.
Anxiety, depression, and living with a health challenge
Anxiety and depression are among the most common reasons people reach out; if that's you, my overview of understanding depression and anxiety is a good place to start. And when a serious or chronic illness is part of the picture, whether your own or a loved one's, the emotional weight is real; I've written about how therapy can help with managing chronic illness, something I understand personally as well as professionally.
Grief and loss
Loss threads through a lot of individual work. If grief is the main thing you're carrying, you may want my dedicated page on grief and bereavement counseling. It draws on years I spent supporting people through hospice and bereavement.

- What approaches do you use?
- Alongside talk therapy I draw on Brainspotting, psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches, shaping the work around you rather than following a fixed formula.
