About Janice

Dr. Janice Moran is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Texas with 16 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, career concerns, grief, parenting issues, depression, and codependency. She also addresses intimacy-related concerns and supports people navigating LGBT issues and compassion fatigue.

Her style centers on clear conversation and practical planning. Sessions involve mapping out specific goals, discussing patterns that keep someone stuck, and trying small, doable changes. She uses techniques from client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral approaches to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors.

Moran draws on broader methods like mindfulness and existential thinking to help people examine values and meaning. She also works with trauma-related material using eye movement desensitization and reprocessing where appropriate. These approaches are used to address things like grief, infidelity, family of origin issues, and past hurts that affect current relationships.

She is open about living with blindness since birth and integrates that perspective into practical guidance for people dealing with vision loss, including helping them locate local state resources when needed. She identifies as LGBTQ+ and offers LGBT-affirming support for related concerns, including gender dysphoria and intimacy differences.

Moran often helps people set boundaries, manage people-pleasing, and rebuild a clearer sense of self after caregiving, chronic illness, or controlling relationships. Her sessions aim to work on communication problems, body image, kink and alternative sex culture topics, and recovery from betrayal or religious harm.

How sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches work for online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what someone says so they can find their own solutions; it helps when someone wants a nonjudgmental partner to talk through people-pleasing and boundary struggles. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks down patterns of thought and behavior into small parts and tests new ways of thinking and acting; this is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, and repetitive relationship habits.

Many clients and therapists find it helpful to try different approaches rather than committing to one right away. She will work with the client to identify goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan together. This means the approach can shift over a few sessions based on what feels most effective for the person.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, since the biography does not list specific formats here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - whether someone needs a shorter check-in, prefers not to travel, or wants to schedule around work or caregiving. It also lets therapist and client use guided exercises, mindfulness practice, and structured CBT worksheets in real time. Ask about formats during the initial scheduling step so logistics match personal needs.
