About Janice
Janice Withrow helps people facing relationship strains, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting stress, career worries, and questions about intimacy and sexual identity. She also supports those coping with ADHD, bipolar mood issues, sleep problems, anger, and major life changes. Janice practices in Georgia and brings a practical, down-to-earth style to conversations.
Her sessions focus on finding where someone feels stuck and helping them take the next step. Janice uses a person-centered way of working that invites honest talk about thoughts, feelings, body sensations, and life meaning.
Background and approach
She helps people name patterns that hold them back and try experiments to change them. Janice draws on a mix of approaches to match a person's needs, including cognitive-behavioral techniques, attachment-focused ideas, and acceptance-based practices. She uses skills from dialectical methods and emotion-focused work when those fit the concern.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and practical, not academic. With 17 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor, Janice has worked with a wide range of life challenges. Her background includes rehabilitation counseling and work with trauma, chronic illness, and disability-related concerns.
That experience informs how she helps people set realistic goals and manage day-to-day demands. People who meet with Janice usually leave with clear next steps - new ways to respond, simple coping skills, and a plan for moving forward. Her approach balances emotional exploration with concrete tools to reduce distress and improve relationships.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small committed steps toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines, which can help with sleep, stress, and mood problems. Attachment-Based ideas look at how early relationships shape current patterns and help people build safer ways of relating and communicating in close relationships.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to what matters most to the client, try methods that fit their goals, and adjust as progress is seen. That way treatment stays practical and aligned with what the person wants to change.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easy to check in between sessions or fit brief conversations into a busy day. These flexible formats help people access consistent care around work, family, or mobility constraints and still use the ACT, CBT, and attachment-based methods discussed above.
