Janice Brovet , LCSW

Janice Brovet, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker who provides psychotherapy in North Carolina. LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a credential that authorizes her to conduct clinical psychotherapy in the state. She holds a Master of Social Work with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy and completed additional post-graduate training in alcohol and drug treatment.

With 32 years of professional experience, she has worked with children, adolescents, couples, individual adults, families and stepfamilies, and older adults. Her practice background spans inpatient and outpatient care, residential treatment, intensive outpatient programs, and private practice, giving her a broad perspective on different treatment settings.

Her academic foundation is rooted in Structural and Strategic Family Systems, and those ideas inform much of her clinical work. She aims to meet clients where they are and begins therapy from a place of comfort and collaboration. Depending on a personâs goals and presenting concerns, sessions may explore family of origin dynamics or focus primarily on present-day experiences and problem solving.

A central part of her approach is guiding people to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through cognitive behavioral techniques. She has also trained in trauma treatment and attends to how larger societal forces such as racism and discrimination affect mental and physical health. She supports efforts toward equity, diversity, and inclusion in healthcare.

Therapy with her can be brief and solution-focused or ongoing for maintenance and accountability. She works to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be expressed. Taking the first step can be difficult, and she hopes the process brings clients greater insight, resilience, and a renewed sense of self.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and building a collaborative relationship so clients feel understood and supported; it is useful for people seeking a supportive space to explore life changes, relationships, or identity concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often applied to anxiety, depression, stress, and coping challenges. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and practical techniques to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, helping with stress, grief, and ongoing mood concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and adapt methods accordingly, combining techniques as appropriate to address symptoms and life circumstances.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet with licensed professionals - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, manage caregiving or work obligations, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not possible. These options support consistent access to therapeutic work while allowing different communication styles and levels of interaction.
