About Me
I am a Licensed Master of Social Work in the State of Michigan with 15 years of experience as a therapist and life coach. I have experience working with variety of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship and career issues. My specialty has been in the area of anxiety including performance based anxiety, OCD, and PTSD. I am an EMDR trained therapist. This has allowed me to help clients overcome past physical, emotional and sexual abuse.
My counseling style is collaborative. I believe my clients are the "experts" on themselves and that allows them the freedom to be honest with me. Together we create a vision of the changes and goals for their lives. I am a practical results oriented therapist that works hard for my client's success.
It is the brave ones would reach out for help. I applaud you for seeking help and wanting to make a difference in your life. Together we will work towards that vision. I look forward to hearing from you.

Reviews
Janice is wonderful! She allows me to see things in a different perspective and has really started to change my frame of thinking in a positive way. I look forward to our sessions every week!:)
Janice (Jan) is awesome. She is down to earth and makes you feel understood . It's nice to know people that talk with you ,not at you.
Janice has been a great therapist for me. She listens and is genuinely interested in helping me through my healing journey.
Janice is amazing! I'm so thankful I found her when I did. She is professional and helps pinpoint why you're feeling something and where it stems from. She provides great insight but allows you to help yourself. I would recommend her to anyone.
Janice does an amazing job of listening and relating what I say back to me for clarification. She responds objectively and is focused on working with me toward finding solutions to the root of a problem.
Jan has been just what I needed in a counselor.
Ms. Burton is kind, understanding and helpful. I look forward to seeing her each visit.
Janice has helped me tremendously over the course of my betterhelp experience. She provides all of the resources that I require to benefit the most from my therapy and I would recommend her to anyone.
Ms. Burton is a good listener and makes sure there are key areas which we discuss and she directs the dialogue back to those topics well, while allowing for free thoughts and congenial conversation. I appreciate her suggestion for a method of thought processing one can practice, to identify and move past moments of anxiety or indecision. I love having the remote online video sessions.
Janice is a great counselor. She is down to earth and full of great advice.
Jan has been quick to respond and gives helpful feedback.
She’s great!
Janice’s the best therapist I’ve encountered. She’s always patient, encouraging and filled with wisdom. Would highly recommend her.
Janice is awesome I absolutely adore her! She's open minded and always knows how to put things in perspective and make me laugh no matter what I may be going through.
Jan is awesome. Always willing to allow me to speak and vent, then redirect as needed. Tons of great advice and techniques that have helped me feel safe and content. Highly recommend.
Janice has been very helpful for me in listening to me and giving me insight and direction. I feel and not judged. I appreciate her service and highly recommend her to people
In just a few weeks that I have used Betterhelp and spoken with Janice, I feel as though she has helped me think about things in new ways and help me understand where some of my feelings and struggles come from. I think she is a great listener and very goal-driven which is helpful for me. She has given me great tools to work with as well.
She was a good listener and calm and agreeable.
Jan is a great listener and makes me feel heard and cared about.
In just four sessions, I've seen dramatic progress in my own life and well-being since meeting Janice. She provides such a safe space to talk and her experience on every matter that I'm dealing with is very evident. She has been exceptionally helpful.
When I first started with Jan, I was closed off and apprehensive. I had never been in therapy before and I had many preconceived notions on how therapy was supposed to go. Jan, with her very sweet and caring nature, immediately put me at ease and allowed me to open up on my own time and come to terms with my past trauma. Her use of EMDR therapy with me vastly changed how I viewed and perceived my past. It allowed me to take a step back and see it from a different perspective without being influenced by my strong emotional connection to the event. I am a huge advocate for Jan. Her gentle, sweet caring nature while being straight to the point (when appropriate) has greatly helped me and I know that she truly cares about each one of her clients. You won't find a more loving and caring therapist than Jan!
Janice is very helpful in guiding my thoughts into a more positive way. She listens to me ramble and hopefully makes sense of it all.
Janice and her in-depth knowledge and experience have been such a wonderful resource for me. She is very thoughtful and uses different techniques to try and help understand the root of what is challenging in my life. She is a true healer at heart and wants to see her clients find peace and growth. I would recommend Janice's services to all of my friends and family. Thank you Janice and Better Help!
Janice is very understanding and nonjudgmental. She is very easy to talk to. She’s helped me a lot.
Jan was wonderful and helped me through issues with my mom. She was constructive and gave practical ideas on how to express my feelings and set healthy boundaries with my mom. She helped me see that I can't change my mom and that her actions are not my fault. She was helpful in letting go of my desire to fix the situation and be in control of it. Very helpful and great listener!
She's been great so far.
Great response and very helpful.
She's amazing!
