Greetings! I am Licensed Mental Health Counselor both in the State of Texas and Florida. I received my Master of Arts in Theological Studies with a Counseling Orientation at Northern Baptist Theological Seminary in Lombard, IL. In 2000 I became a Play Therapist from the Association for Play Therapy, Inc. My career as a Family therapist spans over 18 years of experience; my clinical skills have provided me the privilege of working with individuals who want to better their lives. I believe in the goodness of human beings and welcome the opportunity of helping them find better ways to live a fulfilling life via managing the many issues of life such as stress, anxiety, grief, adjustment issues and life transitions. I have provided counseling services for people dealing with depression, traumatic events, ADHD, parenting issues and terminal illnesses. My approached is humanistic and supportive contained in a non-denominational spirituality. My focus is on helping clients recognize their personal strengths and assuming responsibility for their personal growth process. Though it may be important to recognize our past history in dealing with life issues, my focus is to help individuals live in the here and now with a strong emphasis of inner connectedness. As a person who has grown up in a multicultural environment and as a Bi-lingual therapist (English/Spanish) I embrace diversity and respect for differences in people. Committed to my own personal growth together with my professional skills, I am committed to help individuals change their current situations, current pain or trauma into transformative living.

Hello, my name is Elizabeth Janca. I knew from an early age that I wanted to be a counselor after my own experiences in play therapy and counseling. Having that safe space meant so much to me that I wanted to provide that opportunities for others. Born and raised south of Houston, TX, I pursued a Bachelor’s in Psychology from Texas A&M University followed by a Master’s in Counseling and Development at Texas Woman's University north of Dallas, TX. Over the last ten years I have had experience in direct therapy as an ABA therapist for children aged 2-12, play therapy with children aged 4-10, activity therapy with adolescents, talk therapy with adolescents and adults, and group therapy with adolescents and adults. Aside from my experience as a counselor, I also have three years’ experience in middle school education as an Academic Counselor and Administrator. I joined BetterHelp and Global Teletherapy with the hope of being able to continue to offer guidance and a safe space for children (5-12), teens (13-18), and young adults (19-35) as they navigate the challenges they encounter in life and school through client centered counseling. I primarily work out of Person/Client Centered Counseling, also known as Rogerian, which focuses on where the client drives the session in a nonjudgement space that facilities reflection. I also utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which focuses on challenging and changing unhelpful cognitive thoughts and behaviors, improving emotional regulation, and develop coping strategies. I look forward to working with you!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a MA in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. I have focused my counseling career on helping individuals adjust to various life transitions and traumas. These transitions may be due to retirement, parenthood, or moving into adulthood. The transitions may be by choice, such as marriage, or by force, such as a work-related injury. No matter what the cause of the life transitions, I have dedicated my career to helping people learn how to identify the skills they already possess, strengthen these skills, and then learn new skills in order to make the life changes they desire. I also hold a BSW in Social Work from the University of Wyoming. Prior to becoming a counselor, I spent 16 years as a Social Worker focusing on helping individuals with chronic mental illness and life-altering disabilities learn to cope with life. My experience from this season of my career has helped enable me to look beyond the present circumstances and help individuals gain hope for a future created through circumstances, but not defined by those circumstances. I believe that therapy is a journey for which all people can benefit in order to take charge of their lives and make intentional choices to find joy in the midst of a chaotic world. My role within this journey is to come alongside my client and help them grow during this season of change. I look forward to the opportunities for growth and change which are available as a partner with my clients. On a personal note, I have lived in Texas for over 27 years and enjoy the diversity and opportunities available in the Lonestar State. When I'm not working I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, and learning about history.

Healing and growth can further happen in the context of relationships, and I believe the therapeutic relationship can provide that space. In my work as a clinician my focus has been in supporting individuals, as they move through milestone moments.
