About Janice
Her style is warm and collaborative. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking. She creates a space where people can talk about hard things without judgment and look for small changes that add up.
Janice draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which supports identifying unhelpful thinking and trying different behaviors. She also uses a client-centered stance that prioritizes each person’s pace and goals. Together these approaches aim to increase coping skills and reduce distress in daily life.
Over three decades she has supported people through relationship strain, parenting challenges, caregiving stress, divorce and loss. She also addresses women’s issues such as postpartum concerns and life stage transitions. Her work includes attention to family patterns, communication problems, and feelings of isolation.
People who choose Janice can expect straightforward tools, gentle feedback, and a focus on what matters most to them. She helps clients find clearer direction, manage difficult emotions, and take practical steps toward a more meaningful routine and relationships.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the client’s lead to build trust and clarify goals. It helps when someone needs acceptance and space to sort through feelings about relationships, identity, or life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical ways to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and changing patterns that get in the way of daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose strategies that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That partnership includes trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan over time.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce the need to travel. Licensed professionals can use a mix of listening, guided exercises, and homework to help clients practice new skills between sessions.
