Kinter Janice, PHD

Janice Kinter is a phenomenal therapist, and I’m grateful for finding her through a friend many years ago. I’ve been to other therapists in my life and Janice rises above them all. Her brilliant insights are razor-​sharp, cutting right to the issues at hand. She also has deep knowledge of how this town works (definite bonus!), along with a memory so keen that most times I’m blown away by how she pulls all of the random puzzle pieces together into something I see clearly. The best part is that all of this is enhanced by her warm, personable, open nature. Janice’s sessions have changed my life in so many positive ways. I wish I could double the stars given on this one. She’s exceptional, and would be the greatest gift for anyone seeking a professional therapist!

I would recommend Dr. K to anyone seeking therapy or improvement from within. She is professional, straightforward, and a wonderful source for advice. Dr. K is a strong sounding board and well spoken individual who constantly helps me focus on getting better as a person and at life. My relationship has never been better thanks to my weekly sessions. Additionally, I paged through most of the reviews on this site and they all seem spot on. I noticed one ex-​client decided to post her sour grapes on Unilocal.I’ve never encountered such ridiculous tactics by Dr. K in my two years of being a client and having couples therapy. We now know that «compulsive lying» can be added to her list of improvements that need to be addressed by the next therapist. Geesh.

Dr. Kinter is an absolutely wonderful therapist. I have been seeing her since filing for divorce three years ago, and she has not only helped me cope with that major life change, but also with all of my inter-​personal relationships, as well as my growth as a person and as a professional. She is a warm, caring therapist who is a very grounding emotional touchstone for those in her care. Whenever I get in a tough jam, I often find myself thinking, WWDKD (What would Dr. Kinter do)!

Janice has been my therapist for 10 years. She has guided me through the ups and the downs in my life. She helped me and my wife come to the conclusion that we are great people, just not great together. I am very grateful for her sage advise. A real professional and a nice person as well.

Having seen Dr Kinter for a decade I feel justified in saying that at times she has saved me, my marriage and my career sanity. LA can be a tough town, she understands the ins and outs of it and provides a macro view. She gives actionable «homework» if you ask for it so your growth and personal understanding can go beyond the 1 hour session. Not sure about that comment regarding her couples work as my husband and I have found her to be UNBELIEVABLY helpful! Janice helps you be heard by your partner and for your partner to hear you. She reframes what your partner is saying in a way that makes sense to you, and vice versa Above all, there is no such thing as picking sides… She’s warm, nonjudgmental and one heck of a nice gal to boot!

I have not seen Janice Kinter for about 10 years but cleaning out cards thought I’d send her a note letting her know how I’m doing. Looking her up to verify that her address is still the same I came to this Unilocal page and decided the best note would be a public one saying how much the couple of years that I saw her meant to me. Dr. Kinter moved me through an extremely difficult time in my life. Her honest and clear communications skills made it possible for me to make sound decisions. I’ve had quite a few good therapists during my lifetime and Dr. Kinter is among the better ones. I would recommend her to family and friends and am delighted to see that she is still doing good work that could have only gotten even better over the years.

Dr Kinter was recommended to us by a friend. I think she may be better as a therapist for an individual but as a couples therapist she was unprofessional and probably the WORST therapist we have seen. We caught on because she would tell each of us in our individual sessions things about the other person and her judgement about us and then tell us not to tell each other. She did nothing for us and almost caused more problems. We have since seen a new therapist and told her what Dr. Kinter said to each of us and she was shocked saying she shouldn’t be practicing! My friend who originally recommended her has also come to the same conclusion about her! I would be very cautious on seeing her for couples therapy!

Dr. Janice Kinter is a wonderful therapist. A friend of mine suggested that I go see Janice when I was going through a difficult time in my life.
I was a bit hesitant to go but Janice made me feel very comfortable and I was able to quickly open up to her.
The thing I like about Janice is that she is honest and gives good perspective on things going on in my life. She has taught me how to expand my perspective without being forceful. I have learned so much about myself from Janice and I would highly recommend her.

All I can say about Janice is WOW! She is awesome! Totally professional and sharp while being super warm and flexible! I found Janice from fellow Unilocalers and am so grateful! Must have talked to at least 6 therapists before Janice. She takes all insurance and works evening… and if that wasn’t enough… she is actually effective! No nonsense, consise and super trained (she was invited to work with ⁹⁄₁₁ victims in NYC) her perspective is right on and I’ve been able to find many answers to issues I’ve had that were totally hidden from me… Thank You JANICE!

Dr. Janice Kinter is a truly outstanding therapist.
Dr. Kinter is professional and very respectful. She does her job with the utmost care and excellence. She is extremely intelligent, kind and insightful.
I had and continue to have a wonderful and extremely positive relationship with her. I recommend her highly for her skills and her strong ability to put the client at ease. She is sincere, honest and non-​judgemental.
Words are not enough to describe how amazing Dr. Kinter is!
I believe that she is the best therapist in the city.

Janice is the best therapist! I spent two years with a M.D. and had more realizations with Janice in a month. She knows what she is doing. Her waiting room is really nice too and she has candy and kleenex in her office.

Janice Kinter is the best therapist in LA. With other therapists I frequently would feel like I wasn’t getting my money’s worth or else they would project their own nonsense on me, prolong our therapy needlessly, or dwell in the negative without any clear direction.
Janice doesn’t do any of that. She can instantly pinpoint my limitations, see the bottlenecks, and help me work around them. She teaches me coping skills that were never taught by my schooling or family and quickly gets me to a place where I can apply these lessons without needing her there.
Almost every time I leave the room with literally thousands of dollars of insight and she’s helped me push my career to new heights much faster than I could have on my own. She’s been right about every single suggestion so far which gives her three times the batting rate of Babe Ruth. :) She’s a super star.
Her rates are really reasonable. I read on the Internet that she’s considered a therapist to the stars and other high achievers so I think it’s especially cool that she’s kept her rates reasonable and her personality humble.
Check her out, you’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain.
