Therapeutic approaches for online support
Janette combines client-centered work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques to support people online. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and placing the client at the heart of sessions - it helps those who want a collaborative, non-directive space to explore feelings and make sense of life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep difficulties. Mindfulness therapy encourages present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance, offering strategies that can reduce rumination and improve emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Janette works with clients and registered professionals in a collaborative way to identify which methods fit best with a person's goals, circumstances, and preferences, and she adapts the plan as therapy progresses.
Online sessions - by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent support from home or elsewhere. These options offer flexibility around scheduling and can allow people to engage in therapy in ways that suit their daily routines and needs, while maintaining the same professional therapeutic focus as in-person work.
