Therapeutic approaches and online care

Janet integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathy and respect, helping people explore their own goals and values while strengthening self-understanding and relationship skills. CBT helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety or depression and improve daily functioning. DBT teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance, which can be especially useful for people struggling with strong mood swings, relational conflict, or difficulty regulating emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Janet works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions and adjusts strategies over time so care stays aligned with progress and changing circumstances.

Online therapy with Janet is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and lifestyles. These options allow people to access licensed professionals from home or while traveling, making it easier to maintain continuity of care and incorporate therapy into a busy life.
