Evidence-based approaches for flexible online care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and replacing them with more balanced ways of thinking and behaving. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, panic, and everyday stressors where practical coping skills can make a noticeable difference.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, combines skill-building in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. It is helpful for intense emotions, relationship challenges, impulsivity, and patterns of avoidance or isolation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Janet collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then recommends or adapts techniques that fit the client’s life. This collaborative process helps ensure the methods chosen are a good match for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - which can make it easier to attend sessions around work, family, or mobility constraints. These options allow consistent access to licensed professionals and make it possible to practice new skills between sessions in real-world contexts.
