About Janice

Janice Suskey is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Arkansas with 20 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. Janice emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and a straightforward approach that helps people take practical steps forward.

She works with people facing grief, parenting strain, addiction concerns, and family-of-origin issues. Codependency and communication problems are part of her additional focus areas. Janice also supports those coping with life transitions, loss, and changes in motivation or self-esteem.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions involve clear talk, tailored goals, and tools people can use between meetings. Janice adapts her approach to each person rather than following a rigid plan.

Janice uses several therapeutic approaches to guide care. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to center the person's own goals and experience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and change practical habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used for emotional regulation and coping in stressful moments.

People can expect a respectful, goal-focused relationship and a plan that fits their life. Janice encourages small, steady steps and checks progress along the way. She invites prospective clients to begin by completing a short questionnaire to match with her and then schedule a first appointment.

How her approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person t the center of the work, so the therapist follows what matters most to the client and helps set realistic goals. This approach is helpful when someone needs a supportive space to sort priorities and make choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it gives concrete exercises and simple ways to track progress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers practical skills for regulating intense emotions and improving how someone copes in stressful moments. These skills are taught in short, usable steps that people can practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Decisions about which techniques to try are made collaboratively and adjusted as progress is tracked.

Session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or making scheduling more flexible. Licensed professionals can use these practical benefits to help people keep therapy consistent while balancing everyday responsibilities.
