About Janice

Janice Harbin is an experienced Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 30 years working in the mental health field. She began her career serving children and adolescents and has spent the past ten years primarily working with adult clients in outpatient settings that collaborate with psychiatric services when needed. Over the last decade she has focused extensively on addiction treatment, including three years as part of a drug court treatment team, and she has maintained a Certified Advanced Addiction Drug Counselor certification for eight years.

Janice approaches addiction as a symptom and seeks to understand the underlying problems that contribute to addictive behavior. Her work draws on a Christian background and a strong personal faith, and she is willing to incorporate prayer when that aligns with a client's values. She aims to share practical expertise and compassionate guidance to help people through difficult, lonely, or rocky periods of life.

Outside of her clinical work she enjoys spending time outdoors riding her bike and walking, and she values time with her family, children, and grandchildren. Janice welcomes the opportunity to support individuals as they navigate life changes and recovery.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Janice draws on several evidence-based approaches to support clients in online therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and focuses on clarifying values and committed actions - it can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical strategies to change behaviors and emotional responses, which is helpful for depression, anxiety, and coping with addiction. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and supporting the client's own goals so people feel heard and supported as they explore change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Janice works collaboratively with clients and with other licensed professionals as needed to identify which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy schedules or to maintain continuity during life transitions. These options allow Janice to provide consistent support while accommodating different communication styles and practical needs.
