"I was curious about Yoga, but knew I was not able to lie down on the floor and learn it. When I saw an ad for chair yoga I said that is for me to try. I signed up for a month's classes and loved it from the start. It is not strenuous activity, yet at the end of the class you know you have had a workout and you feel refreshed and happy. that you have done something good for your body. I am going to my 3rd year of classes."

“Do something good for yourself and the universe will support you.”

These words have held true since the first time Janice said them to me and I applied them to my life. It was a few years ago when I first began seeing Janice and I was working in an atmosphere that was harmful to me mentally, emotionally and as a result of the stress; physically. Before I met with Janice I remember thinking, I can never leave this job. I have a steady paycheck, health insurance, job security. Through the first few sessions she helped me to see that those things meant nothing if I wasn’t healthy and happy. Not long after, I left that job. It was one of the scariest things I had ever done, but it was well worth the risk. I now have a career that I am passionate about and enjoy!

I don’t think there could be anything more rewarding then the second time I remember applying those words of wisdom to my life. This time was much more difficult and a much slower process. I was in an awful marriage and was afraid to leave. To say that Janice helped me to understand not only what was happening, but why, would be the greatest understatement of all time. We took the journey back in time to discover false beliefs I was holding for myself. She truly opened my eyes to many things that I had either denied to myself or simply had not realized. I have since left my marriage and have never been, nor imagined I could be, happier than I am now. I am in a happy, loving, nurturing and most importantly, healthy, relationship.

My work with Janice has been invaluable to me. Most importantly, she has given me a space to be myself ~ all of myself. The ability to look inside of myself for the strength that I sometimes had forgotten was there. There is no greater gift that one human being can give another than helping them to regain control of their life and their happiness. Whenever I face a difficult situation now or in the future, I find comfort in knowing that all I have to do is think back and hear Janice saying those magical words and I know everything is going to be just fine. There are no words that can adequately describe how thankful I am to have worked with Janice. Her kind ways and gentle ways have changed my life forever.

I was drawn to Guidance for Inner Peace for the holistic approach to personal growth and healing, as well as a desire to deepen my own spirituality. I am a firm believer of the mind, body, and spirit connection so this type of practice was perfect for me. I was going through an extraordinary spiritual transformation in which Janice was able to recognize and assist me with. Not only does she have an understanding of the mind, body, and spirit connection, but her approach to counseling and healing is done with love, acceptance, and kindness. I have gained a better understanding of myself and others as well as recognizing the challenges that have kept me from seeing and accepting my divine path. My family, friends, and coworkers have noticed the positive changes since I started working with Janice so it has also inspired their interest in holistic healing. My experience has been nothing but positive and am grateful for the opportunity to work with Janice.

I am a retired educator who desires and needs to reconnect with myself as I journey through new transitions. In this way, I can positively move on and make amends with the hurt and burdens dragging me down from the past. Janice is a person who has a special talent/gift for gently and compassionately relating to the client's agenda in a constructive, unobtrusive, and gentle manner. I feel lucky to have found an individual with Janice's training and perspective, since her approach deals with the whole person, looks toward the future with optimism, and offers renewal. For just randomly searching the Internet for a person whom to contact for personal growth, I feel very fortunate to have found Janice's website.

I actually stumbled across Guidance for Inner Peace in search of an alternate method of dealing with anxiety and depression. I had been recently laid off from a great job, my husband and I were separating and I felt completely disconnected from my children. No one could help me nor understand what I was going through. I had been on depression medications for months and didn’t like the way they were making me feel. I could actually feel myself interacting with others differently, in a way that wasn’t true to who I really am. Rather than feeling closer to my family, I felt even more distant. I was on the outside looking in at someone I was starting not to like. I stopped taking the medications but I knew I was still not well. My life had hit an all time low, my personality was just non-existent and I knew I needed help.  When I found Janice at Guidance for Inner Peace, I wasn’t sure of what to expect but I knew I could rely on God’s Grace. He would not have led me to her with out a Divine Plan. I had never experienced energy healing before, but the experience is cleansing in a way that you feel negative energies being replaced with new ones for days after. Janice’s work addresses healing from the inside out with the combination of energy healing and counseling. I would highly recommend it for anyone looking for a release of anxiety or in need of safe healing in a non-judgmental environment.  I am learning my way back to my core self. I am learning to trust myself more and to love myself more day by day. God is doing a tremendous work through her by healing the whole person, mind, body and spirit.

I sought the services of Guidance for Inner Peace in an effort to add some balance and insight to my life. I’ve seen traditional therapists in the past and was really looking for something a little more on the cutting edge. Janice provides counsel for my mind, body, and soul all in one! I’ve found her advice and thoughts to be extremely beneficial and have grown tremendously from my weekly visits. We’ve incorporated her Reiki skills into our sessions and it has added another whole level of healing. I’m so glad I found Janice. My outlook and the way I deal with difficult situations in my life have really improved. I’m so much more comfortable in my own skin. Thanks Janice!
