Therapy approaches you can use online
Janice uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT often focuses on practical steps to reduce anxiety or depression and on skills people can use between sessions.She also draws from acceptance and commitment therapy, which teaches ways to accept difficult feelings while moving toward chosen values. This approach can help with grief, midlife transitions, chronic health issues, and ongoing stress that won't simply disappear.
Finding the right approach is a joint effort. Janice will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and current situation. That process may include trying tools from different approaches and adjusting based on what helps most.
Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also suit people managing chronic illness or caregiving duties who need more flexible scheduling. Licensed professionals tailor the work to what you need and help translate therapeutic tools into everyday routines.
