ABOUT JANICE

I was a trauma therapist who couldn't see her own patterns.

That is exactly why I can see yours.

MY STORY

For years I helped women understand their pain while I stayed stuck in mine.

I was good at my work. I was trusted, respected, and clear. And at home I was in a relationship that slowly taught me to doubt everything I knew.

I saw the signs. I explained them away. I stayed longer than I would have let any client stay.

In 2020, it all came apart. My marriage ended. I came close to leaving the profession I loved.

And somewhere in that unraveling I realized something that changed my work completely.

I didn't have an information problem. I had a split.

I knew more about trauma than almost anyone I knew. But the clear, confident woman at work and the woman in my relationships were running on two different systems.

That realization became the Professional-Personal Identity Split. Finding my way back to one whole self became Courageous Living.

WHAT I DO NOW

I help high-achieving women become the same woman in every room.

I've sat across from hundreds of women who trust themselves everywhere except in love, or who built a beautiful life and can't let themselves enjoy it.

I don't offer more insight for its own sake. I find the bottom line of what is keeping you stuck, name it precisely enough that you finally exhale, and give you a clear path forward.
