About Janet

Janet Dove is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and career concerns. She aims to create an open space where clients can share thoughts and feelings without judgment. Janet emphasizes practical steps and steady support so people can start making changes they notice in daily life.

She uses a blend of approaches chosen to fit each person’s needs rather than a one-size-fits-all method. Sessions often involve learning skills for managing strong emotions, trying small behavior changes, and looking at patterns that get in the way of feeling confident. Janet encourages clients to build awareness and take values-based action in everyday situations.

Janet brings six years of professional experience to her work in Florida and holds licensure as an LMFT. She emphasizes forming a trusting relationship as the foundation for progress. That relationship is used to explore what matters most to the client and to set clear, achievable goals.

Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns including coping with life changes, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, sleep and eating difficulties, addiction-related struggles, and compassion fatigue. She also works with people facing attachment concerns, codependency, and feelings of emptiness.

Clients can expect straightforward conversation, practical tools to try between sessions, and an emphasis on building confidence and long-term coping. Janet invites people to take the first step toward making changes at a pace that feels manageable.

How Janet’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, meaningful actions even when uncomfortable emotions are present. It helps people move toward what matters to them while building skills to tolerate difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns that maintain anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful habits. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns and works to create more secure ways of relating to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janet will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life situation. She adapts techniques as people try them and gives feedback on what helps most.

Confirm the session formats before booking so you know what options are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins that suit a weekly routine or a shorter session during a work break. Many people find remote sessions helpful for continuing progress between in-person visits or when schedules change, and Janet will discuss how to shape sessions to match daily responsibilities and goals.
