About Janet
Janet Hardy is an LPC (licensed professional counselor) in Mississippi with 10 years of clinical experience. She provides telemental health counseling to adults for concerns such as parenting, relationships, anxiety, depression, trauma, and anger. Sessions are offered in English and she works with young adults, parents, and the LGBTQIA+ community.
Janet sees problems as coming from many sources - biology, environment, learned behavior, culture, and personal history. She uses a mix of approaches rather than one single method. That means sessions often combine talking through current stresses, looking at patterns from the past, and trying concrete skills to handle intense feelings.
Her starting point is building a strong working relationship. She emphasizes a person-centered way of working that focuses on clear, honest interaction and respectful acceptance. From there she and the client set goals together and pick approaches that fit the person's needs and preferences.
In practical work she may use strategies from attachment-based therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy to help with emotion regulation, boundaries, and relationship patterns. Hypnotherapy and mindfulness tools can also appear when they suit a client's goals.
Janet conducts care via telemental health. Before starting, clients will complete identity verification and provide an emergency contact. Scheduling begins by completing a short matching questionnaire and then booking a first session.
How sessions work
How Janet uses therapy approaches in online sessions
Janet draws from attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy to shape online sessions. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people notice and change those patterns in relationships. Client-centered therapy focuses on straightforward, respectful interaction so clients can explore feelings and make decisions without pressure. Cognitive behavioral therapy breaks down unhelpful thoughts and reactions and teaches practical techniques to shift thinking and behavior.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. Janet will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what’s been tried before. Together they pick methods that fit the problem at hand and adjust them as work progresses rather than sticking to a single model from the start.
Because care is offered via telemental health, online sessions can fit into daily life more easily for many people. Confirm the exact session formats before booking so you know how appointments are delivered. Online work can make it simpler to schedule short check-ins, avoid travel, or choose sessions that rely less on video when bandwidth or background noise is an issue. Licensed professionals can still teach DBT-style emotion regulation, CBT skill practice, and attachment-focused reflections effectively through telemental health.
