About Janet

Janet Crockett is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - Certified (LCSW-C) in Maryland and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Delaware with nine years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, career struggles, eating concerns, parenting strain, anger, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

That may include learning new coping skills, practicing different ways to respond when anger rises, and planning steps for handling grief or career decisions.

How sessions work

Evidence-based approaches and how they fit into online sessions

Janet uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address strong emotions and past hurt. One common approach focuses on skills training to recognize triggers, name feelings, and try alternative responses when anger rises. This helps with daily reactivity and workplace frustration.

Another approach works with processing past traumatic events in manageable steps. That method helps reduce the intensity of memories or reactions that fuel current anger. It can also support grief work and relationship repair by clarifying what happened and how it affects present choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janet will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they set clear goals and adjust methods if something is not helping.

The practical advantages of online sessions include easier fitting of appointments into a busy week and fewer travel demands. Online work can make it simpler to check in during lunch breaks or to stick with regular appointments when schedules change. The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking to know what will be offered.
