About Janice

Janice Terry is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 26 years of professional experience who combines evidence-informed strategies with a compassionate, client-centered stance.

Background and approach

She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as one tool among several to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, stress, mood challenges, and addictive behaviors.

Her work addresses a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting challenges, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Her background includes extensive practice in substance-related concerns, communication and attachment struggles, and coping with life changes such as divorce, caregiving responsibilities, chronic pain or illness, and cancer-related stress.

Janice emphasizes teaching coping and communication skills, supporting motivation for change, and helping clients build healthier patterns in relationships and self-care. Based in Texas, she offers services in English and provides a blend of approaches such as attachment-based methods, client-centered techniques, dialectical behavior therapy, and emotionally-focused work to tailor care to each person’s goals.

Approach-Focused Online Therapy for Skill Building and Attachment Work

Janice uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in online work to help clients notice and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, and addictive behaviors; CBT emphasizes practical tools and homework to build new habits. She also integrates attachment-based approaches to explore how early and current relationship patterns affect emotional regulation and intimacy, which can be useful for communication problems, abandonment concerns, and family-of-origin issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process may blend CBT skills training with attachment-focused exploration or client-centered techniques so the plan evolves from shared assessment and goals.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for scheduling and consistency of care when in-person visits are not feasible. These remote options support ongoing skills practice, check-ins between sessions, and access to therapy from different locations while allowing licensed professionals to guide progress toward the client’s goals.
