Approaches That Guide Janine's Online Therapy

Janine integrates Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathic listening and acceptance so clients can explore their feelings and build confidence in their own solutions. This approach works well for issues like self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and decision-making. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, eating concerns, and coping with life changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and practical ways to notice thoughts and sensations without judgment, helping with stress management and emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Janine collaborates with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the work as progress is made to ensure the fit remains helpful and relevant.

Online therapy with Janine can take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistent sessions around work, family, or other commitments, and allow licensed professionals and therapists to provide meaningful support across distances.
