Attachment-informed, Client-Centered, and CBT Online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns formed in close relationships and how those patterns influence current emotional responses and expectations. It can help people who struggle with trust, intimacy, abandonment, or recurring relationship difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person's own experience and strengths - the therapist offers empathy, validation, and support so clients can explore values, identity, and self-worth at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, teaching practical strategies for managing symptoms of anxiety, low mood, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Janette works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve. This collaborative stance helps tailor care to each person's situation.

Online therapy offers flexibility and easier access to consistent care. Licensed professionals and therapists can meet with clients by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it simpler to schedule around work, family, or other commitments and to continue therapy when in-person visits are impractical. These options support ongoing engagement and allow Janette to deliver therapeutic tools and support in ways that fit each client's life.
