Approaches and Benefits of Online Therapy with Janisse

Janisse employs Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients guide the focus of each session and develop self-directed solutions. This approach is helpful for building self-esteem, clarifying values, and strengthening self-awareness.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and reshape unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT offers practical tools for managing anxiety, stress, and anger by teaching strategies to reframe thoughts and practice new coping skills.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are integrated when emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness are priorities. DBT skills help with managing intense emotions, improving communication, and reducing conflict in relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Janisse works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review options and adjust methods as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives. These options make it easier to connect from home or on the go and support consistent, accessible care that adapts to individual schedules and circumstances.
