Online support
Approaches that translate well to online care
Janet uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a listening space where people can talk through what matters most and set goals at their own pace. This approach focuses on the person in front of her and helps build trust through open, empathetic conversation.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which breaks down thoughts, feelings, and behaviors into practical steps. CBT is helpful for managing anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and try new coping strategies.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Janet collaborates with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences, and she may combine approaches to address specific problems like grief, postpartum mood concerns, or caregiver strain.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let conversations feel closer to an in-person session, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports brief check-ins, and text messaging can be used for ongoing, stepped communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, and other responsibilities while still using evidence-based techniques.
