Janice Carr

Janice Carr is an LPC, LMFT with 18 years of experience helping people facing major life changes. She focuses on practical support for people feeling stuck by grief, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Her tone is warm and straightforward, and she aims to make beginning therapy less overwhelming.

Her work centers on understanding how relationships and attachment shape current struggles. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral approaches and acceptance-based strategies to help people tolerate hard feelings and make values-based choices. Emotion-focused techniques are used when processing relational pain and improving emotional connection with self.

Janice offers direct, skills-oriented work for stress, career strain, identity questions, and intimacy-related concerns. She helps people name patterns that keep them isolated or reactive and practices new ways of coping in session. Sessions include talking through recent events, experimenting with new responses, and building simple routines that support change.

Her background includes extended practice in Florida and prior licensure in Colorado. She combines a client-centered stance with structured interventions so each plan fits the person in front of her. Language of care is English and services are provided in Florida.

For those worried about where to start, she asks straightforward questions to match goals with practical steps. The initial work focuses on pressing problems, then moves toward longer term growth and clearer direction for daily life.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Janice often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy when supporting people through change. ACT focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts, clarifying what matters most, and taking small steps toward those values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and decisions during life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from important relationships and how they affect current interactions, which can be useful for intimacy-related issues and relationship struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods based on the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape session goals and homework between meetings.

Session formats are not listed in the provided biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during a work break or remote sessions when travel is difficult. Online work can still include skill practice, behavior experiments, and emotion-focused conversations that support coping with life changes and relationship concerns.
