Are you feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or exhausted? Are you tired of searching through profiles to find the right therapist? I'm Janice. Let's work together; I'm now accepting new clients. Starting now, we can develop coping skills, tools, and a plan to create the change you want in your life. I want to help you make the changes you need to feel better. Let's break down what's holding you back and lay the foundation for your dream life, so you can start feeling better!
For over ten years, I've practiced an eclectic therapy style that blends various approaches. Sessions focus on how anxiety, neurodivergence, beliefs, relationship challenges, and self-esteem impact us. You will learn to understand yourself better and develop effective coping skills.
I hope that through conversation, we can foster acceptance for the difficult things and discover joy where you might not have realized it was possible. I look forward to hearing from you. If you want to create change or need help figuring out where to begin, I am here; let's chat.
Call or Janice Lyons now for a free 15 minute consultation - (226) 784-5458
