04Online support
How Janis Uses Practical Therapies Online
Janis often draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to support online work. Client-Centered Therapy means the conversation focuses on the client's priorities and strengths; the therapist listens, reflects, and helps the person find their own path. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions, and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns and reduce anxiety or stress.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Janis will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and will suggest methods that fit those priorities. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made or goals shift.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief updates, daily encouragement, or when writing feels more comfortable. These options help people fit therapy into work, family, and busy days.
