About Janice

Janice Dias Dabawala helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and struggles with self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with addictions, grief, parenting pressures, work-related stress, anger and intimacy-related concerns. Janice works with people facing life changes and compassion fatigue too.

Janice uses straightforward conversations to help clients identify practical steps forward. She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape sessions.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Janice commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy when working with clients online. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and helps people test unhelpful beliefs with practical exercises. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and build ongoing calm in daily life.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods that match those aims. Progress is checked together, and approaches are adjusted if something feels unhelpful or unclear.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people keep visual contact and read facial cues while meeting from wherever they are. Phone sessions can be a quicker check-in or suit lower bandwidth situations. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for shorter reflections, written exercises and times when scheduling a live session is difficult. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
