About Janet

Janet Dove is a licensed marriage and family therapist who uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage stress and anxiety. She focuses on everyday struggles like grief, motivation, self-esteem, and relationship concerns. Janet speaks plainly and makes the first steps feel doable for someone nervous about reaching out.

She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space for people to talk through thoughts and feelings. Sessions aim to build skills and self-awareness so clients can handle future challenges with more confidence. Janet emphasizes collaboration and clear goals during treatment.

Her approach blends cognitive behavioral ideas with acceptance and values work when useful. She helps people notice unhelpful thinking, try different behaviors, and practice small changes that add up. Attachment-focused methods are used when relationship patterns and early bonds are part of the concern.

Janet draws on six years of professional experience and practices in Florida as an LMFT - licensed marriage and family therapist. She works with a wide range of issues including depression, addiction, parenting stress, sleep and eating concerns, and career-related changes.

Practical problem solving is paired with attention to meaning and values. That means using straightforward techniques alongside conversations about what matters most to each person. The goal is to leave clients with tools they can use between sessions.

Janet welcomes questions about how sessions are run and what to expect. She guides new clients through a simple matching and scheduling process so people can begin at a pace that feels right.

Using CBT, ACT, and Attachment Work Online

Janet often uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT-style techniques can be useful for anxiety, depression, and habit change by breaking problems into manageable steps.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and accept difficult feelings while taking committed action. ACT can be helpful when someone is stuck on what matters most and needs practical ways to move toward those goals.

Attachment-based work looks at relationship patterns and early bonds to understand how they affect current connections. This approach can help when communication problems, trust issues, or repeated relationship cycles are present.

Janet treats the choice of approach as a team effort. She will talk with each person about their goals, try a method that fits, and adjust based on what is working. The plan evolves from session to session so it stays relevant to the client's needs.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more convenient. Video is useful for in-depth conversations, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and texting allow brief check-ins or ongoing support. These options help fit therapy into work breaks, caregiving schedules, or busy days without a commute.
