Background and approach

She also helps with relationship strain, parenting stress, and career questions. The tone in sessions is calm and practical, aimed at making things feel more manageable. Janet blends mindfulness, a person-centered attitude, and cognitive behavior work in sessions.

That means she listens closely, helps people notice unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and offers simple tools to try between meetings. Goals and plans are made together so work in therapy fits each person's life. Sessions can be shorter check-ins or fuller conversations depending on what is needed that week.

Conversations are plain and direct, with steps to practice outside of the session. Janet welcomes people from Colorado and beyond who prefer English or Spanish. To begin, she asks people to introduce themselves and say when they want to start.

The first steps are a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session that fits the person's timing.

How Janet Brings Evidence-Based Care Online

Janet uses mindfulness and cognitive behavior strategies to help people manage worry, stress, and patterns that get in the way of feeling better. Mindfulness work teaches short practices to notice thoughts and bodily tension so reactions can be gentler; it often helps with anxiety and sleep problems. Cognitive behavior approaches focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change routines that feed addictions or low self-esteem.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and daily life, and together they will try techniques that fit those needs. Plans are adjusted as progress is made and priorities change, so the work is practical and flexible.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people read facial cues and have a fuller conversation, while phone calls may be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging offer shorter check-ins or a way to keep in touch between sessions. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel and keep momentum over time.
