She speaks plainly and aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable.

Her background includes a Master of Education in Professional Counseling and Human Development with a specialization in Mental Health Counseling. Janice has about eight years of clinical experience and holds LPC and LPCC credentials in the states listed by her licensing bodies.

Janice pays attention to each person’s strengths and daily routines as part of therapy. People who want a direct, goal-oriented counselor often find this style helpful. Janice encourages small, steady steps toward change and supports clients as they try new habits and ways of thinking.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Janice commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying thought patterns that lead to distress and testing new, more helpful behaviors; it works well for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and stress. Client-centered therapy emphasizes an empathetic, nonjudgmental relationship so clients feel heard while they set goals and try changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Janice treats the choice of methods as a collaboration based on each person’s goals and preferences. She will discuss what seems to fit best and adjust methods as progress is made or needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation for skill practice and deeper check-ins. Phone sessions can fit a lunch break or need less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging work for shorter check-ins, quick coping strategies, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it easier to get care around work, family, and daily life while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
