Janet Dove

Janet Dove is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Florida. She focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem challenges, and life changes. Her approach is warm and direct, and she aims to make starting therapy feel manageable for someone taking a first step.

She creates an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment. Janet works with clients to build practical skills and clearer self-understanding. She emphasizes building trust so people feel heard and supported during difficult moments.

Janet uses a mix of approaches to fit each person’s needs. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people accept hard feelings and move toward valued actions. She also uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are part of her toolkit for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior. Client-Centered methods guide the pace and focus of sessions so the person’s goals lead therapy.

Over six years of practice have included work with grief, caregiver stress, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related worries. She also supports people facing cancer-related issues, aging and geriatric concerns, and challenges like body image or parenting strain.

Janet’s mission is to help people gain skills, confidence, and a steadier sense of wellness. She encourages small steps and practical changes while offering steady support through life’s transitions.

How Janet’s approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, grief, and motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people develop more secure ways of relating and coping.

Janet combines these methods with Client-Centered care, which puts the person’s goals and pace first. She works collaboratively to figure out which approach or mix of approaches fits best. Clients and therapist will review progress and adjust methods together as needs and goals change.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as using shorter check-ins during a break or avoiding travel time. It also allows people to use techniques like ACT homework, thought records from CBT, and attachment-focused reflections between sessions to keep progress moving forward.
