About Janice
Janice Suskey is an LPC, Licensed Professional Counselor, and an LMHC, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, practicing in Arkansas with 20 years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, low self-esteem, and life changes. Anger is listed among her focus areas alongside mood and addiction concerns. This opening contact describes who she is and the types of struggle people bring to sessions.
Janice frames sessions around clear conversation and practical steps. She uses conversation to identify immediate problems and patterns that keep them happening. Clients can expect straightforward discussion about triggers, thinking patterns, and coping strategies rather than jargon or abstract theory.
Her toolkit includes approaches such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, emotionally-focused methods, and hypnotherapy. Those methods are woven into sessions to help with emotion regulation, communication problems, and building motivation for change. She also addresses blended family stresses, caregiver strain, codependency, and forgiveness work.
Janice emphasizes respect and sensitivity in sessions. She outlines goals with each person and adjusts conversation and interventions over time. Practical actions and skills often form part of follow-up between visits.
To begin, clients use the site process to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How her approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy places the client's perspective first. It focuses on listening, reflecting what the person says, and helping them clarify goals. This approach helps when someone needs space to sort out feelings about relationships or life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and build different responses. CBT can be useful for anxiety, anger patterns, and low self-esteem by teaching new skills to try between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds specific skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. It teaches concrete strategies to ride out strong emotions and improve communication under stress. Those skills can be practiced in session and used in daily life to reduce snapping or escalation.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will review goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most. This is a collaborative process that balances the client's preferences with practical techniques.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, shorten check-ins when needed, and allow work on skills without commuting. Licensed professionals can offer the same conversational and skills-based work online as in person, while making sessions more convenient for everyday life.
