About Janis
Janis Edralin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people facing addictions, grief, trauma, relationship struggles, and LGBT‑related concerns. She works with individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. Janis focuses on building clarity, identifying strengths, and supporting practical steps toward a more meaningful life.
Her counseling style is collaborative and respectful. Sessions are conversation‑based and goal‑oriented, with attention to personal values and everyday choices.
Background and approach
She uses a mix of approaches to tailor work to each person rather than a one‑size‑fits‑all method. Janis brings 19 years of clinical experience and a background in counselor education. She draws on Attachment‑based ideas to look at relationship patterns and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps when people want to reconnect with values and take committed action. Her professional life has also included mentoring other counselors, teaching as an adjunct professor, and international service in the Peace Corps. Those roles shape a practical, culturally aware perspective in sessions.
Janis sometimes uses creative elements from her broader life experiences to help clients find new ways of coping. Outside of counseling she enjoys hiking, biking, fencing, and reading poetry. She sees reaching out for help as a concrete first step, and she aims to walk alongside people as they make changes that matter to them.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Existential Therapy looks at personal meaning and choice. It helps people facing big questions, life changes, grief, or feelings of emptiness by focusing on values and what matters most to them.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills to accept difficult feelings and commit to actions that reflect personal values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors, and motivation struggles.
Attachment‑Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns shape current connections and communication. This work can help people who notice repeated relationship difficulties, attachment worries, or trouble trusting others.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to see which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is made and new concerns arise.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet those goals. Video calls let people have in‑depth conversations and read body language. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a camera feels uncomfortable. Live chat and text‑based messaging provide quick check‑ins, brief coping support, or a way to stay connected between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work from different locations.
