About Janice

Janice Quirl is a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of practice in Texas. She helps people facing anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and changes in life. She also addresses issues like low self-esteem, sleep problems, anger, career concerns, and compassion fatigue.

Janice works with clients who bring relationship and LGBT-related concerns as well as family matters. Janice uses straightforward, conversational work in sessions. She listens for the patterns behind recurring problems and helps people name what matters most to them.

Background and approach

She prioritizes clear communication skills and practical steps clients can try between sessions. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes. Her training includes client-centered methods that focus on each person's own perspective.

She also draws on narrative techniques to help people reframe their stories. Psychodynamic ideas are used to notice long-standing patterns that affect current life. Janice brings experience supporting those dealing with caregiving stress, aging and geriatric issues, and hospice and end-of-life questions.

She also addresses attachment and family of origin concerns, fatherhood and fertility issues, forgiveness, guilt, and shame. Social anxiety, isolation, life purpose, and women's issues are part of her practice too. Sessions are offered in English and arranged according to the therapist's location in Texas.

Janice aims to create a steady, compassionate space where clients can work toward clearer priorities, stronger relationships, and better day-to-day coping.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening to each person's experience and building therapy around their goals; it helps when someone needs validation and a steady, understanding presence. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people tell about their lives and helps reframe those stories to reveal different choices and meanings. Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to patterns that repeat over time and how past experiences influence current feelings and relationships. Janice sees finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will work with clients to choose which methods fit their priorities and comfort level. Over time the plan can shift based on what helps the client make progress. Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or travel. They also let clients continue consistent work even when attending in-person sessions would be difficult, and allow different communication styles to be used depending on the client’s needs.

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.

Narrative Therapy

Looking at the story you have come to tell about yourself, and where it came from. The work is in separating the problem from your identity and finding accounts that fit you better.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Exploring how earlier relationships and patterns still shape the present, often over a longer stretch of time. It relies on conversation and reflection rather than exercises.
