Juanita Gamache

Juanita Gamache, LCMHC, LPC, helps people who are dealing with addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, and parenting stress. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through hard moments and find practical ways to cope. Her approach is grounded in compassion and steady support. She has worked in the field for 22 years and brings that experience to each session.

Juanita uses mindfulness practices to help people notice their thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to help clients clarify values, build safer connections, and make changes that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered techniques are part of how she helps people test new behaviors and shift unhelpful patterns.

Sessions focus on what the person wants to change next. Conversations include skills training, gentle exploration of past hurts, and concrete plans for coping with stressors. Juanita frames progress as small, steady steps rather than quick fixes.

She invites clients to bring their faith or personal strengths into the work when that feels helpful. The tone in the room is warm and direct, with an emphasis on practical tools you can use between sessions.

Therapy with Juanita aims to help people manage difficult feelings, repair important relationships, and move forward after loss or disruption. People who want calm, steady guidance and skills-based support may find her style a good fit.

Mindful approaches adapted for online care

Juanita uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people learn to notice thoughts and physical sensations without being driven by them. Mindfulness practices are helpful for anxiety, stress, cravings, and managing difficult emotions by teaching attention skills and grounding exercises.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions in that direction even when feelings are uncomfortable. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to understand patterns in close relationships and to build safer ways of connecting with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Juanita will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit your situation. The choice of techniques is collaborative and can shift as needs change.
