About Janet

Janet Hardy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Mississippi who provides online counseling to adults. She focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting concerns, trauma, and ADHD. Janet aims to build a straightforward, respectful connection so people can speak openly about what feels hard.

Her approach centers on a person-centered style that prioritizes listening, empathy, and working alongside each client. Sessions focus on real-life problems and concrete steps people can try between meetings.

Background and approach

Janet combines attachment-based ideas with cognitive-behavioral and dialectical strategies to address patterns that cause ongoing pain. She draws on ten years of clinical experience to adapt methods to each person’s needs. That can mean practicing new coping skills, looking at how past relationships shape current reactions, or using focused exercises to manage mood and attention.

Hypnotherapy is another tool she may use when it fits a client’s goals. Janet helps people who identify as LGBTQIA+ and provides support for fertility, adoption and foster care issues, blended family challenges, and questions about gender dysphoria. She also addresses grief, self-harm thoughts, intimacy concerns, bipolar mood patterns, and self-esteem struggles.

Sessions are offered in English and delivered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Janet emphasizes a collaborative process - she works with each person to set goals and choose approaches that feel right for them.

Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit your life

Janet draws from client-centered therapy, attachment-based work, and cognitive behavioral therapy to shape online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and respect, giving people space to name what matters to them while the therapist reflects and supports. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and helps people try new ways of relating that feel safer. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises and short experiments to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and address attention or habit patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Janet treats this as a collaboration: she will check in about your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together you can try different techniques and agree on homework or skills practice that match your everyday life.

Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video sessions work well for full conversations and skill practice, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging helps with brief support and reminders. These options let people fit therapy around work, childcare, and busy schedules while still working with a licensed professional.
