About me
Hello
My name is Janet Giles and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. My experience has been in a variety of clinical settings
over the past 20 years. I have also taught psychology courses as an adjunct professor for National University in their counseling program. Courses include Lifespan Development, Child and Adolescent Development, Theories of Personality and Psychopathology. It can be intimidating to take the first step toward personal growth and healing, so I congratulate you for your courage. It is my goal to create the most comfortable and safe environment for our work together.
Some areas of expertise include parenting, relationship issues, victims of abuse and domestic violence, anxiety and depression. I have worked with people
that just need some extra support as they face a new life challenge, as well as those suffering great loss and hardships. My approach varies due to the issue of focus. I primarily utilize a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client and Strength Based, and Mindfulness interventions. However, other modalities are drawn upon if indicated.
I am also an artist and have been accepted into several art exhibitions. I try to bring my sense of creativity into the therapeutic process. I also enjoy sewing, knitting and a good game of chess.
It is my belief that the therapeutic relationship is vital to the success of treatment. I look forward to our meeting and will be honored to join you on your journey toward wellness and a more fulfilling life.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Janet Giles. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Janet is an insightful caring therapist
My husband and I were on the edge of a divorce. We both have come through and continue to communicate. Our relationship has benefited immensely due to Janet. She is amazing.
