About Janice
Janice Nass is an LCSW with 40 years of practice who helps people navigate major life changes. She focuses on anxiety, depression, grief, chronic illness and relationship strains. Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at helping people feel less stuck and more able to move forward.
She often frames change as something you can respond to rather than control. In sessions she helps people notice the stories their minds tell and offers ways to reframe those narratives. That can mean looking at core beliefs, testing whether they still fit, and shifting toward actions that match personal values.
Janice uses a mix of cognitive behavioral ideas and acceptance-based techniques alongside a person-centered outlook. She also draws on solution-focused steps to set achievable goals. The result is practical work that addresses feelings, thoughts, and small behavior changes that add up over time.
Her background includes long-term care and hospice social work, administrative roles, and years in group practice. Those experiences inform a calm, steady approach with an emphasis on dignity, resilience, and sensible coping tools. She believes it is never too late to begin again or try something new.
Sessions typically look at supports and self-care, communication habits, and ways to tolerate discomfort without letting it define someone. Janice helps people find clearer direction and build everyday practices that reflect what matters to them.
How these approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match personal values; it can be useful for anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with practical experiments to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s experience at the center, offering listening and reflection so someone feels heard and can move toward their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. That collaboration includes checking in about what feels useful and changing tactics when needed.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when days are tight, and offering options that work better when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Talk with the therapist about how to schedule sessions and which format will best meet your needs.
