About June
June Cichowicz helps people facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, parenting stress, and major life changes. She supports those coping with addiction, mood disorders such as bipolar, body image concerns, and workplace or caregiver stress. June is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in California with more than two decades of experience.
Her style is straightforward and warm. She listens first and asks practical questions to clarify goals. Sessions focus on understanding current struggles and building skills that make daily life easier.
Background and approach
She uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs rather than one fixed method. June earned a master’s degree in social work from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and completed a two-year mental health fellowship at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles. That fellowship involved work with a wide range of people across ages and abilities, which shaped her flexible, person-focused approach.
In therapy she combines client-centered conversations with evidence-based tools. That can include identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, practicing new coping strategies, and looking at one’s life story to find meaning and direction. Humor is sometimes part of sessions when it fits the situation.
She sees the person as the expert on their own life and focuses on clear, goal-oriented plans. June aims to support clients through transitions, loss, illness, and the everyday challenges that get in the way of feeling more steady and hopeful.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
June blends client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to address practical problems and personal meaning. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely, following each person’s lead, and helping people feel understood as they set goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, depression, or unhelpful habits.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together they will try methods that fit the person’s style and adjust them over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation when that feels helpful. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, brief coaching, or to keep progress moving between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work during transitions or illness.
