About Janet

Janet Eddy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 11 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, motivation problems, and life changes. Her work also addresses concerns such as bipolar disorder, panic, compassion fatigue, and questions about life purpose.

Janet keeps sessions straightforward and conversational. She invites clients to talk through feelings and thoughts and to identify what feels most urgent. This helps people who feel stuck after a job change, a loss, or a major health or relationship shift.

Her approach draws on several practical methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and client-centered work. These tools are used to notice patterns of thinking, practice new behaviors, and clarify values that guide next steps. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is also part of her toolbox for trauma-related symptoms.

Janet often helps people sort through grief, guilt, shame, and the emptiness that follows big transitions. She also supports those facing aging and caregiver stress, end-of-life planning conversations, and veteran-related issues. Sessions move at a pace set by the client, with attention to concrete habits and small, doable changes.

She works in English and practices in Missouri. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site's online options.

How Janet Uses Practical Approaches in Online Sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small actions in that direction. It focuses on values and learning to move forward even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thinking patterns and tests them with practical experiments. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and motivation concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting so clients can find their own answers and build confidence.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. Janet will discuss these methods with each person and decide together which fits current goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts techniques based on how a client responds and what feels most useful in real life.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats. Please confirm the available session types before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow focused check-ins during a work break or from a quieter room. They also let therapists use worksheets, behavioral experiments, and EMDR-adapted practices when appropriate, while keeping the focus on practical steps and living differently between sessions.
