About Janice

Janice Terry is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 26 years of experience. She brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to therapy and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and relationship struggles.

Her work is rooted in methods that help people understand patterns and make concrete changes. Sessions often focus on developing coping skills, improving communication, and building healthier relationships. She also addresses sleep problems, grief, body image, and issues related to ADHD and bipolar mood concerns.

Janice has worked with a wide range of concerns tied to family of origin, attachment and abandonment, codependency, and caregiver stress. She supports people facing chronic illness, cancer, and chronic pain as they adapt to life changes. She also helps with parenting strain, divorce and separation, and stage-of-life transitions.

In the therapy room she blends client-centered listening with approaches that give people skills to manage thoughts and emotions. Clients can expect straightforward guidance, practical exercises, and a focus on day-to-day progress. Her methods aim to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.

She practices in Texas and holds an LCSW credential. Sessions are conducted in English. When considering therapy that fits life around work and family, she encourages prospective clients to ask about session options before scheduling.

How Janice’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice attachment styles and try new ways of relating when bonds feel unsafe or confusing.

Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person’s experience. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps clients find their own direction for change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses short practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and coping skills.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as things change.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Session format options are not listed here, so please confirm current session formats before booking. Many people find online work lets them practice skills in everyday routines and bring real-life situations into sessions.
