Janet Hardy

Janet Hardy is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who offers telemental health counseling to adults. She works with a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, parenting stress, trauma, and anger. Janet notes she supports LGBTQIA+ clients and young adults. Sessions focus on building a trusting relationship so clients can talk about what feels hard.

Janet sees individuals as whole people shaped by many influences. She looks at environment, learned patterns, values, biology, culture, and personal history when thinking about problems. That helps her tailor practical steps that fit each person's life and goals.

Her style centers on person-centered care, which means she emphasizes empathy, honesty, and acceptance in sessions. Clients set priorities and she helps them move toward those goals at a steady pace. She also integrates techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when helpful.

Janet has ten years of counseling experience and uses that background to guide assessment and planning. She asks about identity, relationships, and life context to form a clear picture of strengths and challenges. This informs how she suggests tools and next steps.

Before services begin, proof of identity and an emergency contact are requested. To start, clients use the platform's intake steps to match and schedule sessions. Janet practices from Mississippi and provides services in English only.

How Janet’s approaches fit into online therapy

Janet combines person-centered work with evidence-informed techniques so online sessions focus on relationship and results. Attachment-based ideas help explore patterns in close relationships by looking at how past connections shape current needs and responses. This can be useful for issues like intimacy concerns, family of origin problems, and attachment issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thinking and behavior by identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger management.

The therapist and client will decide together which approaches to use. Janet welcomes questions and adapts methods to fit goals, pace, and comfort. Finding the right mix is an active, collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular check-ins during life transitions and to practice skills between sessions. Confirm the specific session options available with the therapist before booking so you know how appointments will be scheduled and delivered.
