About Janice
Janice Sowell is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPC, LPCC) based in Tennessee who helps people facing anger, stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She aims to create a calm, straightforward space where worries are heard and practical steps are planned. Janice speaks plainly and works with each person to identify what matters most to them.
She uses a mix of approaches tailored to the person in front of her. Much of her work draws on cognitive behavioral ideas that link thoughts, feelings, and behavior.
Background and approach
She also integrates client-centered principles to keep the process collaborative and supported. Janice trained with a Master of Education focused on Professional Counseling and Human Development, completed in 2016. Over eight years she has worked in trauma-informed settings and provided crisis intervention alongside ongoing therapy.
Her background includes helping people with grief, domestic violence impacts, sexual abuse, and relationship struggles. In sessions she focuses on real-world skills and clear goals. That can mean learning new ways to manage strong emotions, changing unhelpful thought patterns, or building routines that improve sleep and day-to-day coping.
She emphasizes strengths and small, achievable steps so progress feels tangible. People who choose Janice can expect a direct but compassionate approach. She invites collaboration, so clients help shape goals and the techniques used.
Her practical focus is on skills people can use between sessions to handle anger, stress, and life changes.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the client's pace. It helps when someone needs a steady, accepting space to name their concerns and decide what to work on.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior. It breaks down problems into doable steps and teaches skills to change patterns that drive anger, anxiety, or low mood.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness. It can be especially useful when strong reactions or relationship conflicts are a core concern.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Janice will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and help choose which methods to try. That collaborative planning makes it easier to adjust techniques if something isn't working.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat is a quicker check-in, and messaging fits people who prefer writing or need flexible timing. These formats make it easier to get regular support and fit sessions into a busy week.
