About Janet

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with 10 years of experience, Janet Hardy focuses on parenting, relationships, anxiety, depression, trauma, and related concerns. She provides telemental health counseling to adults and notes particular experience with young adults, parents, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Janet describes human problems as coming from many sources - environment, learned behavior, values, biology, culture, and personal history. She uses an integrated approach that considers those factors rather than a single cause. Sessions begin by building a strong therapeutic relationship so clients can talk about emotions and vulnerabilities.

Her work draws on client-centered principles that emphasize empathy, congruence, and unconditional positive regard. She pairs that stance with practical tools from approaches such as attachment-focused work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior strategies when helpful. Hypnotherapy is also listed among her methods.

In practice she aims to collaborate with each client to set clear goals and choose strategies that fit their situation and values. Janet notes that therapy is most effective when the therapist and client actively work together toward those goals.

Before services begin she requires proof of identity and an emergency contact. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the online intake flow.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Janet integrates attachment-based work, client-centered methods, and cognitive behavioral techniques in her telemental health counseling. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in relationships and helps people notice how early bonds shape current reactions; it can be useful for relationship strain, parenting, and attachment concerns. Client-centered therapy centers the person’s experience and focuses on building a trusting relationship so clients can talk openly about what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Janet will work with each person to clarify goals, try methods that fit their situation, and adjust the plan as needed. The process emphasizes client input and practical changes alongside emotional exploration.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as the biography lists telemental health counseling but does not specify exact formats here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by removing travel time, allowing a shorter check-in when schedules are tight, or using audio-only options when bandwidth is limited. These practical benefits can help people maintain regular contact with a licensed professional while balancing other responsibilities.
