About Janet

Janet Langtry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan with 27 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with family strain, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, anger, career concerns, life transitions, and ADHD. Janet also addresses codependency and related issues like abandonment and attachment struggles.

Janet keeps sessions straightforward and focused. She listens for patterns that leave a person putting others first or losing their own sense of self. Conversations look at practical steps for setting boundaries, managing strong emotions, and handling the fallout from someone else's drinking, moods, or crisis behaviors.

Her approach blends evidence-informed techniques aimed at changing unhelpful thoughts and habits. She helps people notice how they respond under pressure and teaches ways to act differently in everyday situations. Work can include short-term coaching-style goals and longer therapeutic work where needed.

Janet draws on a long clinical background across community and clinical settings. That experience informs how she sequences support, balancing problem-solving with time to process painful events. She invites people to try concrete skills in the session and then practice them between meetings.

Sessions are practical and direct. Janet encourages clear goals and regular check-ins on progress. People who struggle with people-pleasing, boundary erosion, or living around another person's crises will find focused, experience-based help aimed at changing patterns that repeat over time.

How sessions work

Approach to evidence-informed therapy online

Janet uses evidence-informed techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. Cognitive-style approaches help identify and reframe thoughts that drive people-pleasing and anxiety, and teach concrete steps to respond differently in relationships.

She also uses behavioral strategies that focus on practicing new skills. That can include role-play around boundary-setting, gradual exposure to difficult situations, and breaking big problems into small, repeatable steps. These tactics aim to build new responses over time rather than rely on willpower alone.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Janet works with each person to match methods to their goals, tolerances, and everyday demands. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what is helpful.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that helps. Talk with her during the matching process about how sessions could fit your schedule and preferences.
