Naming & Taming the Elephants in the Room

As a creative, nonlinear thinker, my lifelong skills are acknowledging the unspoken and transforming them into surprising assets, new skills, interesting opportunities, and a good story that’s big enough to live in for both individuals & groups. Curious?

WHAT I DO

WHO I AM

The Path I took to get here

As a kid, my plan was to write and illustrate children’s books. That morphed into a career as a theatrical stage manager, telling stories onstage.

Years later, severe asthma – requiring a nebulizer machine – sent me to an acupuncturist, despite my needle phobia. Surprisingly, that lead to a master’s, then a doctorate in acupuncture and herbal medicine. Now I help people rewrite their stories about what it means to be alive, living in their bodies.

During quarantine, as the Director of Clinical Education at my alma mater, I was tasked with taking a 3,000 year old medicine online. The solution I found to do it has now evolved into my online STEALTHcare practice, using individualized meditation, teaching stories. and coaching to help people physically, mentally, and emotionally create their own healing stories from the inside out.

STEALTHwork expands on that to guide the co-creation of healthier, more vibrant workplaces – building community and guiding everyone to embody their own story of true belonging wherever they are.

This is the springboard for my work as a speaker, facilitator, and workshop host.

Now, all of the above feeds my alter ego – JC, The Story Medic – and influences my writing and podcast work on Substack, as well as my Once Upon A Moment… live events and other public storytelling.

My life’s work continues to be creating stories big enough for us all to live in.

So, where do the elephants come in?

They are the stories waiting to be re-imagined, retold and reintegrated.

Come. Let’s draw a bigger circle together.

GROUP STORYTELLING FOR A HEALTHY WORKPLACE

We begin with your mission, vision, and the purpose of your meeting or event. From there, I craft guided meditations, storytelling, and experiential work to bring your staff into their own deeper sense of belonging while building stronger connections to their colleagues. My unique form of event facilitation, openings, closings, keynotes, and breakout sessions contain and deepen the experience for everyone involved, allowing for clearer engagement and collaboration across the board, while also “checking the wellness box”.

JC, THE STORY MEDIC

SPEAKER | FACILITATOR | STORYTELLER | GUIDE

I am known for insightful storytelling in a wide variety of venues, including professional theatre, university classrooms, community settings, organizational events, and an endless number of kitchen tables.

NOW, I am developing live Once Upon A Moment events, where we’ll explore the lessons behind the stories and how they inform our world. These fun, insightful, bigger and brighter learning experiences will strengthen your storylistening, storystretching, and storytelling muscles through creative group experiences.

Our goal: for everyone to leave with greater connection, a bigger story that informs your world work, and the gentle exhilaration of having had a break from the mundane.

What People Are Saying

Manasvi Madan, Individual STEALTH Client

I’ve experienced the power of Dr. Janice’s ability to create a ripple effect of change and embodiment from across a zoom screen. She can guide you to feel somatic and holistic healing without being with you in person.

I highly recommend checking out her STEALTH sessions or any other offering you can get your hands on. You’ll feel the transformation from within and around you as soon as you are in her presence.

Patricia Lindner, Global Stress Release Specialist

With STEALTHwork, I witnessed a profound shift in our group dynamics. Collaboration deepened, communication improved, and resilience strengthened under her guidance.

Whether you’re aiming to enhance teamwork, cultivate a culture of well-being, or simply spark creativity within your company, STEALTHwork offers a transformative solution. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Janice Campbell’s services to anyone seeking to unlock their team’s full potential and foster meaningful growth.

Teaj Bechard, Acupuncture Colleague

Janice is an amazing acupuncturist and teacher. She is quite proficient. Working with her has always made me feel safe and accepted for who I am. Janice offers deep listening and opens the world of possibility to all of her patients, clients, and students. I recommend Janice as a practitioner, and as a teacher, to assist you on your journey to greater health and well being.

Zen Benefiel, 360 Thought Leader

For anyone seeking to collaborate with a professional who combines deep knowledge, intuitive insight, and a genuine passion for helping others, I highly recommend Dr. Janice Campbell.

Janet Padgett, MUIH Director of Acupuncture Programs

“Janice is a creative big picture thinker, who finds innovative and practical solutions for any situation. She brings teams together with clear direction and humor.“

Dr. Hunter Thompson, DOM, LAc

Janice is an innovator and designed a system to handle functional changes that transformed how Maryland University of Integrative Health worked with telehealth. She has created courses for the public that provide essential changes in their wellbeing. In addition, she and I designed a course platform for acupuncturists’ and other healthcare providers’ continuing education. Her dedication to follow through is inspirational. Partnering with Janice has shown me that she is someone who goes the extra mile. Her ability to see beyond the average makes all the difference.

Sara Eisenberg, MS - Acupuncture Patient & Stealth Client

We’ve been “working together” for years, although it’s been more like Janice is “companioning me”….walking alongside me, helping me clean up messes I was leaving behind me, raising my gaze to what I was too preoccupied to see looming right in front of me. [the elephants] These have been intense years of caregiving, bruising institutional failures, loss, grieving – personal and communal. In her office, my home, and even via Zoom, her use of needles and words have a similar and equally potent grounding, calming, and nourishing effect. She understands the power of story and the power of community-building – eliciting, receiving, sharing… never failing to call me back – with a dash of humor – to what’s needed in the moment.
