About Janice
Janice Sowell is a Licensed Professional Counselor with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, depression, or trauma.

She works from a trauma-informed perspective and emphasizes compassion and honesty in sessions. Janice often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice thoughts that affect mood and behavior.
Background and approach
She also draws on client-centered methods to keep conversations focused on each person’s priorities. Janice trained for a Master of Education with a concentration in Professional Counseling and Human Development, with a specialization in Mental Health Counseling from Lindsey Wilson College in 2016. Her credentials include LPC and LPCC, and she practices in Tennessee.
In practical work she helps people build coping skills for sleep problems, anger, relationship strain, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses concerns such as self-harm, self-love, intimacy-related issues, and communication problems. Sessions focus on realistic steps that fit each person’s life.
Janice believes change takes effort and that the therapeutic relationship is a space to try new ways of thinking and acting. She partners with clients to set goals, find strengths, and make steady progress toward what matters most.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person's priorities. In online sessions this means the therapist centers conversations on what the person wants to change and adapts pacing and tools to those goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Online CBT often uses short exercises, thought records, and homework that are easy to review between sessions.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to emphasize CBT, client-centered work, or draw on DBT skills and mindfulness when emotion regulation is a focus.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and skill practice, while phone sessions can fit a tighter schedule or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for shorter check-ins, tracking progress, and getting reminders of tools learned in sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and try approaches that match individual needs.
