About Janet
She uses practical tools to help clients change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Janet helps people build coping skills for grief, parenting strain, anger, and life transitions. She also supports those living with mood conditions such as bipolar disorder and major depression.
Janet works one person at a time to set clear, measurable goals. She adapts plans to each person’s needs and cultural background. Sessions focus on skills people can use right away and on small steps toward longer change.
Her approach combines ideas from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. That means paying attention to what matters most to a person while also learning to notice and shift thoughts and behaviors that get in the way.
Clients can expect a direct, compassionate style that balances empathy with practical exercises. Janet emphasizes attainable progress and helps people track improvements over time. She encourages anyone feeling overwhelmed to consider a first session as a way to begin tackling real problems.
How ACT and CBT Are Used in Online Work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small, values-based steps toward those goals. It helps when someone feels stuck or overwhelmed by difficult thoughts and emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to notice and change thinking and behavior patterns that worsen anxiety, depression, or stress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they will try methods that fit the client’s needs and adjust the plan based on progress and feedback.
If you are considering online therapy, check the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. Licensed professionals can use exercises, worksheets, and behavioral experiments that transfer well to remote sessions, and the therapist will help adapt tools to a person’s routine and technology comfort.
