Background and approach
Janice keeps conversations straightforward and collaborative so people can try things that fit their life. Her background includes work with mood difficulties such as depression and bipolar-related concerns and with substance and behavioural addictions. She also supports people facing grief, relationship tensions, intimacy concerns and identity issues within LGBT experience.
Janice draws on a mix of approaches including cognitive behavioural ideas, acceptance and commitment principles and attachment-informed work. She uses these to help people change unhelpful thinking, build coping skills and clarify values. Common topics she addresses are sleep and eating problems, parenting stress, anger, and major life changes.
People looking for clear steps and a supportive conversational style may find her approach helpful. Janice offers sessions in English and works with international clients. Her practice includes a range of online session formats so people can choose what suits them best.
Approaches that suit online therapy and everyday life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without letting them control behaviour and focuses on living in line with personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and for people who feel stuck and want clearer direction.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical strategies for changing patterns that keep problems going. It is commonly applied to anxiety, sleep and eating difficulties and to coping with life changes.
Attachment-Based Therapy addresses patterns in close relationships and helps people understand how early connections influence current reactions and expectations. This approach can assist with intimacy issues, communication problems and attachment concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janice will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before. Together they will decide which approaches to try and adjust methods as therapy proceeds so the plan fits the person’s life.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls are close to face-to-face work and allow visual cues. Phone sessions use far less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, homework or people who prefer non-video contact. These options make it easier to work on goals without long travel or scheduling strain.
