About Janet
Janet Ready is a bilingual therapist who has practiced for 20 years. She holds a Master of Social Work and is licensed as an LCSW in Colorado and an LMSW in Michigan. Janet speaks English and Spanish and brings steady experience to moments when stress, mood shifts, or intense feelings get in the way of daily life.
Her style is warm and conversational. She listens first, then works with each person to set practical goals.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters most now, whether that is anxiety, depression, sleep problems, substance concerns, or managing strong emotions like anger. Janet uses mindfulness strategies to help people notice thoughts and body signals without getting swept away. She also draws on a person-centered stance that keeps the client's values and choices at the center of the work.
Cognitive behavioral ideas are used to identify patterns of thinking and try new responses. Together with clients she builds simple, concrete plans tailored to daily life. That can include short experiments to test new behaviors, breathing and grounding practices for intense moments, and steps to improve routines like sleep and self-care.
Janet also supports conversations about career stress, parenting strain, and relationship challenges when those areas come up. She accepts international clients and offers services in English and Spanish. Getting started begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.
Janet aims to be a steady partner while clients work toward clearer routines and calmer responses.

How Janet’s approaches work online
Janet uses mindfulness practices to help people notice their thoughts and bodily reactions. These skills teach simple breathing, grounding, and paying attention so strong feelings can be noticed before they escalate. This approach is helpful for stress, anger, and anxiety symptoms.She also uses person-centered methods that prioritize what matters to the individual. That means listening closely, asking about values and goals, and shaping sessions around the client's priorities. Cognitive behavioral techniques are included to spot unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors in everyday life, which can help with mood, sleep, and addictive patterns.
Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about what feels useful, try approaches, and adjust plans based on progress and preferences. Clients are involved in setting goals and deciding what to practice between sessions.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video works well for deeper conversations, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging supports quick check-ins or brief skill practice. These options make scheduling more flexible and allow work to continue around busy days.
