Remote care using ACT, CBT, and DBT-informed methods
Janell offers online sessions that draw on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take action in line with those values while learning to notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to change reactions and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy contributes concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness.
These approaches are presented in straightforward, skill-oriented ways so that clients can practice between meetings and track progress. Janell frames sessions as collaborative: she works with each person to choose which tools fit their situation and adjusts the pace to match client goals. Online services are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different preferences for remote contact. Information about scheduling and session structure is provided during the initial match process.
