About Janis

Background and approach
She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds shape current relationships and reactions. Janis blends several therapeutic approaches to meet a person’s needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and take committed action, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and client-centered methods that emphasize listening and respect.

Outside work she enjoys hiking, biking, fencing, and reading literature and poetry, interests that shape her disciplined and creative approach.

Online support
How Janis Uses Attachment Ideas and Action-Focused Therapy Online
Janis uses attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships shape current reactions and patterns. This helps when trust, abandonment worries, or communication problems affect close relationships and decision making. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take actions aligned with those values, which can be useful for grief, addiction recovery, and motivation struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janis will collaborate with each person to mix methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking how they fit, and adjusting the plan together rather than applying one set method to everyone.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls work well when seeing facial cues matters, phone sessions need less bandwidth, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives, manage caregiving or work constraints, and keep momentum between appointments.
