Janice Terry , LCSW

Janice Terry is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 26 years of experience. She focuses on practical therapy that helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and life changes. Her work often centers on women's issues and concerns related to relationships, self‑esteem, and body image.

Janice uses a mix of approaches to match each person she sees. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings. She also uses cognitive behavioral tools to reduce unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Emotionally-focused and client-centered work help people talk through painful emotions and clarify their goals.

Her background includes long-term clinical practice in Texas and work with a wide range of concerns such as trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She helps people develop coping and communication skills and build motivation for change.

Sessions may include learning concrete skills, practicing new ways to speak about feelings, and setting small doable goals between meetings. Janice aims for clear, down-to-earth therapy that fits a person's life and schedule.

She offers sessions in English by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Janice commonly uses attachment-based work and cognitive behavioral techniques in online sessions. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions; it helps with intimacy issues, abandonment fears, and communication problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and support recovery from addiction.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janice will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust methods as needed. The process is framed as teamwork where the person’s preferences and daily life guide which methods are used.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skill practice and emotional work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief reflections, meeting reminders, or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options offer flexibility so therapy can fit work, child care, or other responsibilities.
