Background and approach

She pays attention to thoughts, feelings, body sensations, and beliefs to build awareness and change. Somatic approaches are part of her work, connecting body experience with emotions and patterns. Janice blends several methods depending on each person’s needs.

She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques to clarify values and take committed action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Attachment-based ideas explore how early relationships shape current connections.

Clients can expect a mix of talking and experiential work that emphasizes noticing body responses and trying small, concrete changes between sessions. The aim is to reduce distress and increase practical coping skills for daily life. Janice also supports people facing chronic illness, disability, and career or caregiving responsibilities.

She offers sessions in English and provides care online through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Janice is based in Georgia and holds the GA LPC LPC005442 credential.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people get clear on personal values and take small actions toward them. It supports work on anxiety, depression, and life transitions by focusing on what matters rather than getting stuck in unhelpful thoughts. Somatic Therapy pays attention to body sensations and movement to access feelings and patterns held in the body. This can be useful for trauma work, stress, and when emotions show up physically. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current connections and communication patterns. It can help with insecurity, intimacy-related struggles, and repairing trust in relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. Clients and therapist work together to pick techniques that fit the person, their concerns, and their pace.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow real-time interaction for talking and noticing body cues. Phone sessions can be easier when video feels intrusive. Live chat and text messaging let clients check in between sessions and use brief coaching or reminders. These formats make it easier to maintain regular contact and fit therapy into a busy schedule while exploring the approaches above.
