Janice Brovet

Janice Brovet is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 32 years of clinical experience in North Carolina. She holds a Master of Social Work with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy and has provided psychotherapy across inpatient, outpatient, residential, intensive outpatient, and private practice settings. Janice also completed postgraduate training in alcohol and drug treatment. Her work draws on structural and strategic family systems ideas, but she adapts to each person’s needs and comfort level. Sessions may focus on current problems or look back at family-of-origin patterns when that seems useful. Janice often guides people to change thoughts and behaviors using cognitive-behavioral methods. She has training in trauma treatment and pays attention to how broader social factors, like racism and discrimination, affect mental and physical health. Janice is committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion in healthcare and brings that perspective into sessions. Janice believes therapy can be brief or ongoing depending on goals. Some people find a few sessions helpful for specific problems, while others choose regular sessions for ongoing support and accountability. She aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment. Her areas of focus include stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, and many related life stresses. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and coping with major life changes. To start, clients typically complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s lead and creates space for honest conversation, which can help with feelings like anger, grief, or low self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and managing strong emotions such as anger.

Mindfulness Therapy brings simple attention and breathing practices into daily life to reduce reactivity and improve focus. It can help when stress, sleep problems, or emotional overwhelm are getting in the way.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try. This is a collaborative process that can shift over time as needs change.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list specific online formats. Ask about available ways to meet so you can pick what fits your routine. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten commute time, or allow for a quicker check-in during a work break.
