How Janet’s Approaches Work Online
Janet integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide online work in practical ways. Client-centered therapy means she listens closely and shapes sessions around what matters to the person. That approach helps people feel heard and involved in each step. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, improve mood, or change sleep and eating habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Janet will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. She will collaborate on a plan that may combine listening, skill-building, mindful exercises, and body-focused awareness so the approach fits the person’s daily life.
