Dr. Janie Oliver , LPC

Dr. Janie Oliver is a licensed psychotherapist with two decades of clinical experience supporting veterans, children, adolescents and their families, as well as people who have endured physical, verbal, emotional or sexual abuse and other forms of trauma. She brings 21 years of focused practice in behavioral health to work that centers on healing, resilience and practical coping skills.

Her training spans expressive art therapy alongside cognitive and behavioral approaches, and she identifies as a trauma-informed clinician who integrates a holistic perspective into treatment. That holistic lens helps clients uncover personal strengths, map out support systems and set clear, attainable goals for therapy. She draws on multiple methods to tailor care to each person rather than relying on a single technique.

Dr. Oliver holds a Licensed Professional Counselor credential (LPC), which authorizes clinical practice, and is a Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor (CPCS), indicating specialized training in supervising other counselors. She also holds a doctorate in professional counseling, reflecting advanced study in counseling theory and practice. Her clinical experience includes treating anxiety disorders, depression, behavioral challenges, social skills development, parenting concerns and trauma-related conditions, with an emphasis on practical strategies that support day-to-day functioning and long-term recovery.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client's own goals and pace, creating a supportive environment where the therapist follows the client's lead to build insight and self-direction. This approach is helpful for people navigating life transitions, relationship concerns, and self-esteem issues.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and developing practical skills to change them. CBT is effective for anxiety, depression, stress management and behavior-related challenges because it teaches concrete strategies that clients can apply between sessions.

Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the emotional and physiological impacts of traumatic events through targeted interventions that reduce distress and improve coping. It is suited for individuals who have experienced abuse, combat-related stress or other traumatic experiences.

Determining the best therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, preferences and goals, and then recommend methods or combine approaches that fit the client's situation.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, allowing people to access licensed professionals from home, work or while traveling. These options make scheduling easier, support continuity of care, and allow therapy to fit into diverse lifestyles and commitments.
