About Janice

Janice Suskey is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 20 years of practice in Arkansas. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief and loss, motivation and self-esteem concerns. She also works with challenges such as addiction, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, and issues common to young adults.

Janice focuses on straightforward conversations and goal-oriented planning. She uses talk therapy to help people sort priorities, make choices, and build skills for coping with life changes. Sessions tend to be practical and paced to what each person needs that week.

Her background includes long-term clinical work across emotional and behavioral concerns. Janice draws on methods that help people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice new skills, and repair important relationships. She integrates several approaches to match the problem at hand rather than following a single method.

Clients often work on things like managing anxiety during transitions, improving communication, setting boundaries with family, or recovering from loss. Janice also addresses blended family strain, caregiver stress, codependency patterns, and grief at end of life.

She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session. Payment is handled through a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary by location. Sessions are offered in English and Janice does not accept international clients at this time.

How Janice uses therapeutic methods online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on open listening and asking questions that help people find their own answers. It is useful when someone needs support making decisions or sorting feelings about life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at connections between thoughts, emotions, and actions. It teaches practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and reduce anxiety or low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skill training for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, which can help with intense moods and relationship conflicts.

Choosing an approach is a shared process. Janice will discuss options with each person and adjust methods based on needs, goals, and what feels workable. The initial meetings often include trying a few techniques to see what helps most.

The original biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on a break. It also lets people use methods like CBT worksheets, skill coaching, and relationship work while meeting from a convenient location.
