About Jan
Dr. Jan Capaccioli is a licensed clinical social worker with 23 years of experience and holds LCSW credentials in Texas and California. She works with adults who want to manage strong feelings such as anger, grief, depression, and struggles with relationships or addictions. Her practice focuses on practical ways to handle upsetting reactions and reduce the ways those reactions harm relationships and daily life.
Dr. Capaccioli helps people coping with trauma and abuse, family problems, intimacy concerns, and eating or body-image issues. She also supports people dealing with bipolar disorder, compulsive behaviors, and substance use challenges. Sessions often look at patterns that keep problems repeating and small changes that can make life more manageable.
In session she adapts the conversation and plan to what each person brings. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address emotions, behavior, and relationship patterns. The aim is clear: identify what is getting in the way, practice new responses, and evaluate what helps over time.
Her background includes many years working with clients who struggle with control issues, codependency, guilt and shame, and the lingering effects of trauma. She also works with people facing compassion fatigue and stress related to military service. Her approach is straightforward and focused on usable skills.
People who choose her often want direct feedback, tools they can try between sessions, and a plan that changes as progress is made. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to set goals and next steps.
Evidence-based approaches for online work
Dr. Capaccioli uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing behavior and managing emotions. Cognitive-behavioral approaches help identify unhelpful thoughts and habits, then teach practical strategies to respond differently to triggers. These techniques are often used for anger, depression, and compulsive behaviors.She also draws on trauma-informed methods that address the impact of past harm on current reactions. These approaches look at how trauma shows up in relationships and daily life and include pacing the work to avoid overwhelm while building coping skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review your goals and preferences, suggest techniques that fit those aims, and adjust plans as needed. Clients and the therapist decide collaboratively what to try and when to change direction.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. If a session without video is preferred, discuss that option during scheduling to see what is available.
