Dr. Janieth Burton, PA Psychologist PS006561L

Dr. Janieth Burton uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a central part of her work with adults. She combines CBT with client-centered and mindfulness approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and mood concerns. Dr. Burton brings three decades of experience as a Pennsylvania psychologist and writes plainly about practical steps people can try between sessions.

She helps people who are facing relationship strain, career and workplace issues, grief, or major life changes. Many clients come for help with focus and ADHD-related struggles, anger, or low self-esteem. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and skills that can be practiced day to day.

Her background includes assessment and evaluation work that can be used to clarify difficulties and guide treatment. That assessment experience supports a focused therapy plan when diagnostic clarity or testing is helpful. She has long experience offering services through virtual therapy platforms.

Dr. Burton favors short, concrete steps people can try right away. Conversations often include tracking thoughts and behaviors, trying new coping techniques, and practicing mindfulness exercises. She encourages active collaboration so clients shape the pace and focus of their work.

People who want a practical, experience-based approach may find her style fits well. She aims to help clients leave sessions with one or two things to try and a clearer sense of progress. Her practice is based in Pennsylvania and she works in English.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Dr. Burton uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. CBT focuses on small, testable changes people can practice between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve focus.

She also draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation where the client's goals guide the work. Mindfulness therapy is used alongside these methods to teach simple attention and grounding exercises that reduce reactivity and help with stress and anger.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That collaborative planning can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for skill demonstrations and longer conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat or text messaging works well for quick updates, brief coaching, or ongoing support between sessions. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules.
