Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are used when people need concrete skills for mood, sleep, or coping challenges. Janice has worked in Texas settings over many years and brings substantial clinical experience to each session. She teaches coping skills, communication strategies, and ways to build a more positive mindset.
The emphasis is on practical change rather than long lists of theory. People come to her for a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, eating and sleep problems, parenting strain, caregiving stress, work and career worries, ADHD, and substance use issues. She also supports those facing major life transitions and chronic health challenges.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to the client’s needs. Janice helps clients set realistic goals, practice new skills between meetings, and track progress. Her approach aims to make therapy useful and relevant to everyday life.

Online support
Emotion, Attachment, and Online Care
Janice often uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and shift painful emotional patterns and improve how they respond to strong feelings. EFT is useful for people who want to better understand their emotional reactions and build healthier ways of connecting to others.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns influence current behavior and emotional responses. This approach helps people notice repeated patterns and try different ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy provides a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the person’s goals guide the work and the therapist follows their lead.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to choose methods that fit each person’s goals, needs, and preferences. Together they review what is helping and adjust the plan when needed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for in-depth work and seeing expressions, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between sessions.
