Janine Piernas, LMFT, couples therapist, in her Temecula office
Couples Intensive
★★★★★

I cannot say enough good things about Janine! My husband and I completed her couples intensive and we whole heartedly believe she saved us. Janine was so warm, kind and welcoming. Her office was cozy and inviting and she even laid out a spread of snacks for us and made sure we were comfortable. Through our journey with her we were able to better understand ourselves and each other. We learned how to communicate with each other and gained valuable tools that are already making a HUGE difference in our marriage.

Out of the many therapists I've seen personally, I can say she is easily one of if not the best. She clearly knows what she's doing and we are living proof. Thank you Janine for all you've done for us. You gave us a second chance at love and we are eternally grateful!

Way Back to Each Other.

★★★★★
When we were searching for a couples therapist, our top priority was to find one who offered a straightforward and easy to comprehend approach that could be applied and maintained for the long-term growth of our relationship. It was important for us to connect with a therapist who could help us maintain a neutral stance during our meetings, avoiding them from turning into mere “venting sessions.” Fortunately, we discovered Janine. Her approach is remarkably balanced and effective. I wholeheartedly recommend her without any hesitation.

Janine has helped save my relationship. My husband and I have been with Janine for 4 years. She has been with us through the good, the bad and the ugly, lol. She genuinely cares and the relationship that we have built will be everlasting for myself and my husband. I really can't imagine where we would be without her.

From our very first session, it was very clear that we had found someone truly special. Janine created a safe space for open communication. She listened with empathy and offered insights that genuinely helped us understand each other better. The guidance provided during our sessions was incredibly practical, and we found ourselves applying the techniques outside of our appointments. Our relationship has transformed for the better. Thank you, Janine, our marriage whisperer, for your amazing help!

Was a little nervous calling for couples therapy, but Janine really made me feel comfortable making the appointment. After sticking with some sessions we really noticed an improvement in our communication. If you're not sure about couples counseling, I would definitely recommend giving it a try here. It will help!

Our experience with Janine was wonderful! After speaking with her in the initial consultation we knew right away that she was the right choice for us. I love that Janine “phased us down” because she saw that we were growing in the areas we needed to be. That to me says it's not about the money. She is a therapist who truly cares about her clients and their families!

Her ability to remain neutral and non-judgmental allows people to address sensitive issues openly and productively. She also provides practical tools and exercises to help us practice what she teaches. I would recommend Janine to any couple seeking compassionate and effective therapy.

Let me start by saying that I wish there was more stars for me to select! Janine has walked me through a safe space where I am able to see myself differently. Healing never felt safe, it sure does now. I feel privileged to have found such a kind therapist.

Having someone in my corner like Janine has been a real treasure. She has shown up for me in so many different ways, especially during the times I felt the most loneliest. If you're looking for a therapist who makes you feel seen and cared for, who truly listens, then this is the person for you.

The people who know this work best, and who they send couples to.

Janine brings real confidence and clarity to couples therapy. She's direct, honest, and doesn't sugarcoat what it takes to change a relationship. Her 4-hour Couples Intensive is a powerful way to jumpstart transformation. Clients can walk away with real tools, not just hope for change.

Heather Seguin, LMFT

Janine is a highly skilled couples therapist with expertise in helping partners navigate complex relationship dynamics. As a fellow therapist, I wholeheartedly recommend her to couples experiencing difficult issues, especially those in crisis. Her expertise in Gottman Method and EFT aids her in helping couples break free from destructive cycles and rebuild trust.

Lisa Franks, LCSW

What sets Janine apart is her grounded presence, clinical insight, and ability to hold space for both partners with empathy and fairness. If you are looking for a couples therapist in Temecula who is truly invested in helping relationships heal and thrive, I highly recommend working with Janine.
