About Janet
Janet Dove is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on practical support for people feeling overwhelmed. She helps clients manage stress, anxiety, grief, and low self-esteem using clear, down-to-earth strategies. Janet encourages small steps that build confidence and better day-to-day coping.
Janet creates a calm space where people can talk through hard feelings without judgment. She emphasizes listening first and finding what matters most to each person. That foundation helps clients make changes at their own pace.
Background and approach
Her approach blends tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and to clarify personal values. Attachment-based ideas guide work on close relationships and how past experiences shape current patterns. These methods are used in plain language and practical exercises you can try between sessions.
Janet also draws on client-centered and existential perspectives to explore meaning, purpose, and identity during life transitions. She supports people facing parenting stress, caregiving strain, career changes, and recovery from addiction or trauma. Sessions often include skill practice, goal-setting, and reflective conversation.
Janet holds a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist credential and has six years of professional experience. She works with clients in Florida and offers several remote session formats. Starting therapy with her begins with a brief matching step and scheduling that fits each person’s situation.

How practical therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values. It often uses short exercises that build willingness to face discomfort for long-term goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.The right approach is usually discovered together. Janet will discuss your concerns, goals, and preferences and recommend methods to try. That collaborative process means techniques can be adjusted if something is not working or if priorities change over time.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper processing. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick check-ins, skill practice, and ongoing coaching between longer appointments.
