About Janice

Janice Carr is a licensed professional counselor and a licensed marriage and family therapist. She has 18 years of clinical experience and offers a calm, straightforward style that helps people facing hard emotions. Janice focuses on practical skills and steady support for concerns like trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and relationship and identity issues.

Sessions are conducted in English and she practices from Florida. Janice uses a mix of therapies to match what a person needs.

Background and approach

She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to tackle unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Emotion-focused work helps people understand and express feelings that have been stuck or painful. Attachment-based ideas guide her when past relationships shape current struggles.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports building a life around personal values even when tough emotions remain. The therapist emphasizes clear, doable strategies rather than abstract talk. Her background includes nearly two decades working with issues such as intimate violence, gender dysphoria, immigration stress, and compassion fatigue.

Janice also addresses family of origin struggles, infidelity, and loneliness with practical tools and steady listening. Therapy sessions may use video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging so people can fit care into busy lives. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, a prospective client selects Start Therapy, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to availability.

How Janice’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts without being controlled by them and then take small actions that reflect what matters to them. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes where values-guided steps matter.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and expressing core feelings so those emotions lose their power to cause repeated patterns. It can help with intimacy-related struggles and wounds from past relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Janice will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then blend methods to meet those needs. This means therapy can shift over time as goals change.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people work in real time while keeping visual cues, phone sessions remove travel time, and live chat or text messaging can suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit regular work on concerns like stress, coping with life changes, or grief into a busy routine.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
