About Janice
Janice Terry is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 26 years of experience helping people navigate parenting stress and related life challenges. She brings a direct, practical approach that focuses on real skills parents can use right away. Janice works from Texas and conducts sessions in English.
Her work centers on helping people manage anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, and trauma. She also supports parents dealing with sleep and eating problems, grief, relationship strain, and issues related to attention and mood.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize teaching coping and communication skills that can be used at home. Janice blends attachment-focused ideas with cognitive-behavioral tools and client-centered listening. That means she pays attention to how relationships shape behavior while helping people test small changes and learn new habits.
She uses techniques that are concrete and step-by-step rather than abstract discussions. Over her career she has guided people through big life changes such as separation, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and recovery from substance use. Her style is collaborative and goal-oriented, aiming to help clients notice progress and solve problems that come up between sessions.
Parents often find Janice helpful when parenting feels overwhelming, when a child’s needs stir up old patterns, or when stress and mood make daily life harder. She focuses on simple, usable strategies to reduce tension, improve communication, and support better sleep and routines.

How attachment and cognitive tools work online
Janice often uses attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioral techniques to help parents and individuals change patterns that cause stress. Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationships affect reactions and closeness, and it helps people practice different ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and support better sleep and routines.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose and adapt techniques based on their goals, parenting concerns, and daily life. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and shifting the plan when something does not fit.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and teaching skills. Phone sessions can fit into a busy schedule or require less bandwidth. Live chat or text-based messaging can be a quick way to check in, practice a short exercise, or get support between longer sessions. These options let people keep therapy going around work, school, and family routines.
