How Janice works
She has practiced as a counselor for eight years and works from Tennessee. Janice often focuses on thoughts, feelings, and behaviors using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns and try new ways of coping. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions collaborative and driven by the client's priorities.
Other approaches she uses include Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing when those fits the person's needs. In sessions she looks for concrete changes you can make between meetings. That might include new coping strategies for sleep, steps to reduce anxiety, ways to manage anger, or skills to handle communication problems.
She emphasizes strengths and small steps as ways to build momentum. Janice works with a broad range of concerns such as depression, self-esteem, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and self-harm focus areas. Her style is compassionate, practical, and collaborative, helping people move toward clearer goals and more manageable days.

How Janice's Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's goals and lived experience, letting the client lead while the therapist listens and reflects to help build clarity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors, teaching practical strategies to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and shift unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try techniques that fit the situation, and adjust the plan as needed. The aim is to find methods that feel useful and workable for daily life rather than a fixed program imposed on the client.
Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let people work face to face from wherever is quiet and convenient. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or messaging can help with brief updates, reminders, and ongoing skills practice between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy schedules.
