For those of us experiencing anxiety, depression, chronic illness/disability, grief and loss, relationship issues, and work/life balance difficulties, trying to adapt to the changes these issues inevitably bring is a common thread that binds us all together. Change is a natural part of life, but it has ways of bringing up feelings of fear, uncertainty, doubt, and sometimes even apathy and pessimism. Since we cannot control change – we can only control how we respond to it – we often feel “stuck”.
Together, we can work to address these feelings and adjust our mindsets so we can become stronger from the inside out. Realizing that we have the power to “course correct” our circumstances can be empowering. Our aim in the therapeutic process is to address change by:
*learning to “reframe” the situation and see it differently. We can become more aware of what our minds are saying to us and change the narrative to something that is more aligned with our needs. Sometimes we don’t see the possibilities that change can bring because we are locked in a mindset that this is how things are supposed to be.
*re-examining our core beliefs about ourselves and the world around us. When we know ourselves, our truths, our current beliefs, we can weather change more effectively. Sometimes difficulty comes when we are living out of alignment to our core values.
*acknowledging that it can be uncomfortable but that difficult moments to not define us. Although social media may have us believe otherwise, life is not meant to be lived perfectly. We can learn from our mistakes, alter our actions, and see where we can do better. Avoiding discomfort can lead us to miss out on amazing experiences. Together, through the therapeutic process, we can discover what might be on the other side.
*identify supports and health self-care practices. We can explore those relationships and practices that are reflections of our worth and learn to let go of those that don’t. The therapeutic process can also address how our communication styles can either enhance or diminish our support systems.
These are my beliefs. I blend cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), person centered therapy (PCT) and solution focused therapy tailored to each person’s needs.
In the past 4 decades as a social worker (yes, it has been that long!), I have worked with individuals in long term care and hospice, both as a social worker and as an administrator, and as a mental health practitioner in group practice settings. If I have learned anything over those years it is this: It is never too late to try something new, to start again, and to create a life we truly desire. We are all connected. Our journeys may look different and feel different, but we are all here on this earth for a reason and for a purpose. Let us discover yours – together.

Written on Nov 15, 2024 after therapy with Janice for 5 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, and coping with life changes
I started therapy for the first time in April 2021. I was at a huge crossroads in my life and escaping an abusive marriage and rebuilding my entire life. Janice has been a lifetime for me.
In the early stages, I’d cancel therapy and have every excuse in the book not to address my problems. Janice was someone who told it like it was and told me either you do this or you don’t. She can’t make heal or make me want to heal. After that day, I never deliberately missed a session again.
She has given me the tools to handle my anxiety, set boundaries, heal, love, be vulnerable.
She’s been there for me through all of life’s changes, divorce, new dating, the birth of my son and my life into motherhood. I’d recommend Janice to absolutely anyone who is ready to heal and be pushed to really look at themselves and do the work to live the life they deserve.
I cannot speak highly enough about Janice.
Thank you for everything
