About Janiece

Janiece Foust is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Tennessee with 22 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, parenting, and related issues. Janiece also lists work around ADHD, caregiver stress, and challenges tied to body image and attachment.

She works with adults who are managing parenting strain, difficult family dynamics, or the emotional fallout from loss and trauma. Sessions are practical and talk-based. She helps people name what feels overwhelming and find small steps to reduce that pressure.

Her approach draws on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Janiece also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness to teach coping skills for intense emotions.

In sessions she pays attention to how relationships and family history shape current struggles. That can mean looking at communication patterns, boundaries, and roles that feel stuck. She combines short-term skill work with space to talk about painful experiences when needed.

Janiece expects therapy to be a collaborative process. She helps set clear goals and checks in about what is and is not working. People who are juggling parenting, work, and caregiving often find the focus is on practical strategies they can use between sessions.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s priorities. Online sessions using this approach usually involve open conversation and collaborative goal-setting to address parenting stress and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. In remote sessions CBT can include homework, thought records, and step-by-step behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety and improve sleep. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. Online work with DBT skills often teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication strategies that apply to family interactions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences and recommend starting points. That collaborative process can shift over time as different skills are tried and evaluated.

The original profile does not list the specific online session formats offered, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when needed. They also let people practice skills in the contexts where stress happens, such as between work and childcare, without promising a particular format.
