About Janet
Janet Hardy is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Mississippi with ten years of experience. She offers telemental health counseling for adults and lists parenting, relationships, anxiety, depression, and trauma among her primary concerns. Sessions are described as collaborative and focused on practical ways to handle life’s challenges.
Janet explains that people are shaped by many forces - environment, learned habits, biology, culture, and personal history. She uses that view to build a flexible plan that addresses multiple contributors to a problem rather than a single cause. That often means combining conversational methods with skills practice and reflection.
Her work begins with building a trusting relationship. She uses a client-centered approach that aims to create a consistent, respectful space for exploring emotions and difficult topics. From there she may introduce specific techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to improve emotional regulation.
Janet lists Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Attachment-Based Therapy among the approaches she uses, alongside Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and hypnotherapy. In practice this can look like learning concrete coping skills, testing beliefs, and working on patterns that affect close relationships and parenting.
She notes the process is collaborative: therapist and client set goals and try practical steps to reach them. Administrative steps such as verifying identity and providing an emergency contact are required before services begin. Prospective clients should check current session options before booking.
How Janet Uses CBT, Attachment Work and Client-Centered Methods Online
Janet lists Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a core approach; CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them through small experiments and behavior changes. It is practical for anxiety, low mood, and managing everyday stressors.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy, which looks at relationship patterns that formed early and how they show up now. That approach helps with intimacy-related issues, parenting patterns, and problems that repeat in close relationships. Client-Centered Therapy is part of her practice as well and emphasizes listening and collaboration so clients guide what they want to focus on.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Janet frames therapy as a collaborative process where therapist and client set goals and try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences. She will discuss options and adjust approaches over time based on what is helpful.
