Background and approach

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful space where people can speak openly about what matters to them. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with room for reflection and skill practice. Her work covers a wide range of concerns, from depression and anxiety to relationship and intimacy issues.

Janice pays attention to life-stage challenges such as midlife transitions, parenting strains, postpartum difficulties, and aging or caregiver stress. She also helps with family of origin issues, blended family dynamics, and communication problems that strain daily life. Based in Texas, Janice brings practical tools alongside empathetic listening.

She encourages small changes that build confidence over time, and she helps clients set realistic steps for growth. Many people come for coping skills, improved relationships, or clearer sense of purpose. Therapy with Janice can include short skill-building exercises, thought records, role plays for difficult conversations, or open discussion about values and goals.

Her aim is to help clients leave sessions with at least one usable strategy for the week ahead.

Approaches that guide online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience. The therapist offers respectful, nonjudgmental attention so clients can speak openly and sort through feelings and priorities. This approach helps when people need space to process identity shifts, grief, or relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify patterns of thinking that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them. CBT works well for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday challenges by giving short exercises and concrete tools to practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. Clients take part in choosing techniques and deciding the pace and focus of work.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and demonstrations, while phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or work better with limited bandwidth. Live chat and messaging make it easier to share brief updates, practice skills in writing, or schedule short check-ins between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy routines and keep continuity when travel or location would otherwise get in the way.
