Janice Brovet, LCSW

Janice Brovet is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 32 years of experience providing psychotherapy in North Carolina. Her LCSW credential authorizes her to deliver clinical social work and therapeutic services in the state. She earned a Master of Social Work with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy and completed additional post-graduate training in alcohol and drug treatment.

Her practice draws on extensive experience working with children, adolescents, couples, individual adults, families and stepfamilies, and older adults. She has provided care across a range of settings including inpatient units, outpatient clinics, residential treatment, intensive outpatient programs, and private practice. Academic training in Structural and Strategic Family Systems informs much of her approach and serves as a foundation for family-focused work.

Janice adapts her methods to each person - sometimes exploring family of origin dynamics and sometimes focusing on present-day concerns and practical problem solving. She frequently uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and she has additional training in the treatment of trauma. Her work also attends to how broader societal issues such as racism and discrimination can affect mental and physical well-being, and she supports equity, diversity and inclusion in healthcare.

Therapy with Janice can be brief or ongoing depending on the client s goals; she emphasizes a collaborative, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared. She encourages taking the first step toward therapy as a way to build insight, resilience and a renewed sense of self.

Approaches that guide online therapy

Janice often uses cognitive behavioral therapy - a practical approach that helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and learn new coping behaviors. CBT is commonly applied to issues such as stress, anxiety, mood concerns and patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

She also practices client-centered therapy, which focuses on understanding each person s experience and building a supportive therapeutic relationship. This approach is useful for clients seeking empathy, validation and collaborative problem solving around relationships, life transitions and self-esteem.

Mindfulness therapy is another tool she integrates to help people develop present-moment awareness and stress management skills. Mindfulness techniques can complement other approaches and are often helpful for managing emotional reactivity and promoting calm.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Janice works with clients to clarify goals, preferences and practical needs, and she adjusts methods over time so therapy fits the individual s situation and priorities.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility in how and where care happens. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging make it easier to schedule consistent sessions around work, family and other responsibilities. For many people, remote options increase access to ongoing support while maintaining the same therapeutic focus they would expect in traditional care.
