Fully bilingual in English and Spanish, Janet offers services in both languages to better meet the needs of diverse clients.

Approaches and online support for personal change

Janet draws from client-centered therapy, which focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic environment where clients can explore their feelings and values at their own pace. This approach is helpful for people seeking greater self-understanding, improved relationships, and a supportive space for emotional processing.

She also integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety and depression. CBT is focused on actionable strategies that can lead to measurable change in mood and behavior.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is used when emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness are key concerns. DBT offers concrete tools to manage intense emotions and reduce impulsive or self-damaging behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work; Janet collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into a busy life or to connect from different locations. These formats offer flexibility and regular access to licensed professionals and therapists who can support ongoing growth and coping in ways that suit each client's schedule and comfort.
