Online support

Approach, skills, and online care

Janet blends hypnotherapy with client-centered work to create a calm, collaborative space. Hypnotherapy is used in session to help people access focused attention and relaxation, which can support changes in habits, reduce stress, and ease anxiety symptoms. Client-centered therapy centers on listening, empathy, and building trust so people can explore feelings and set their own goals.

She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and try concrete behavior changes. CBT helps with mood, anxiety, and coping with life changes by breaking problems into clear steps and testing different responses. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process; Janet works together with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and day-to-day life.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video calls let people work face-to-face when schedules allow. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging offer brief check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options give flexibility so therapy can fit into work, parenting, and busy lives.
