About Janet
Janet Langtry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan with 27 years of experience. She works with adults facing family stress, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, anxiety, and life changes. She also supports people dealing with anger, career concerns, ADHD, and relationship issues.
Janet focuses on clear, practical conversation. Sessions are straightforward and aimed at helping people manage immediate problems at home and at work. She listens to what matters most, then suggests ways to reduce stress and improve communication.
Her background includes long experience across clinical settings, where she supported people through loss, separation, and caregiving strain. That history shapes a calm, steady approach to difficult topics like abandonment, blended family challenges, and chronic illness.
Janet uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address anxiety, trauma reactions, and coping skills. She helps clients learn specific strategies for handling strong feelings, improving interactions, and organizing life when ADHD or caregiving demands get in the way.
Practical steps are central to her work. Janet and the person she sees set short-term goals and check progress at each visit. She also helps with planning around divorce and fertility stress, and with communication problems that affect daily family life.
How sessions work
Approaches used and how online work fits into life
Janet uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and emotional processing. One common approach is skills-based work for anxiety and stress management, teaching breathing, grounding, and planning steps to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Another is trauma-focused care that helps people name reactions, develop safety strategies, and practice manageable steps toward feeling steadier over time.Choosing the right approach happens together. Janet will talk with the person about goals, what has helped before, and what feels doable now. She will adjust methods as understanding grows and as needs change, keeping the plan focused on clear, short-term goals and measurable progress.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the available session types before booking. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy household easier by reducing travel and allowing quicker check-ins during a work break or between caregiving tasks. It can also let someone choose sessions that suit their energy that day, such as shorter conversations when time is limited or a longer session when more processing is needed. Licensed professionals and therapists commonly use online work to help people maintain consistency while balancing family demands.
