How her approaches translate to online work
Janette uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on a person’s priorities and to shape sessions around what matters most to them. This approach involves listening carefully, checking in about goals, and adjusting the pace based on the person’s feedback.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her practice means looking at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and trying small experiments to test new ways of responding. CBT can help with social anxiety, panic, low mood, and repetitive worry by teaching concrete skills for day-to-day situations.
She also draws on solution-focused techniques to identify small, achievable steps and build on what already works. Motivational Interviewing elements help when someone feels stuck and needs clearer reasons to change.
Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. Janette will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she revisits that plan as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific remote session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can use a break at work or evening hours more easily.
