About

Janice Baxter, M.S., LMFT

Growth is a natural part of life. However, it can seem scary and impossible, at times, to achieve. When I think about the times in my life where I have grown as a person and as a therapist, they were the times when I felt the most vulnerable and the most challenged. 

​

The same can be said for the process of therapy. It can be extremely difficult and, at the same time, extremely rewarding. That is why I believe in meeting each client where they are in their own change process and using both support and challenges to help them meet their goals.

​

My goal as a therapist is to help clients have a safe, supportive space for them to be their most authentic, vulnerable selves. I strive to balance this need for support while still challenging clients to help create room for growth and change.  

I received my Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Southern Mississippi. I worked for 4 years at Pine Grove Women’s Center with Women struggling with substance addictions, eating disorders, trauma, and mental health disorders. For the past 3 years, I have worked with children and families of military service members. I have experience working with children with behavioral issues, grief, transition issues, and social-emotional concerns.
