About Janet
Janet Dove is a licensed marriage and family therapist with six years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and life changes.
Background and approach
Her style is direct and compassionate, aimed at building practical skills and clearer thinking in everyday situations. Janet creates a calm space where clients can speak about difficult feelings without judgment.
She emphasizes listening first, then helping clients identify small steps they can try between sessions. That approach suits people coping with depression, relationship strains, or problems with sleep and eating.
Her work draws on therapies that help people notice what matters to them and take workable action. Janet uses methods that address thoughts and behavior, attachment patterns, and values-based choices.
She also brings existential ideas about meaning when clients are wrestling with big life questions. Janet has helped people with career shifts, addiction concerns, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue.
She also supports those dealing with trauma, intimacy concerns, and challenges such as caregiver burden or body image struggles. Her practice includes attention to attachment and blended family issues.
Sessions are offered from Florida and conducted in English. Janet aims to help each person leave therapy with clearer goals and tools they can use.
She invites prospective clients to take a first step when they feel ready.
Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low motivation, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments to reduce symptoms like anxiety and insomnia. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people develop more effective ways to connect and communicate.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each client about goals and preferences, and together they will try methods that fit the person’s needs. Janet aims to be collaborative, adjusting techniques based on what helps most over time.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people work face-to-face when longer conversations are needed. Phone sessions can be a shorter check-in or a better fit when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging provide quick access for processing thoughts between sessions or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep progress moving forward.
