More about Janet

  • 40 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

My name is Janet Webb, and I have been teaching and counseling people my entire adult life. My original focus was education; and I worked as a teacher in public, private, and higher education for almost 20 years. Throughout it all, I have been the “listening ear” when others talked about their concerns, so becoming a counselor was just the right path to follow. My 30+ years of counseling experience in Missouri includes work in a community agency, corrections, private practice, public speaking, and insurance.

You are the expert on you, so our work together starts with you helping me understand your concerns and what you want to achieve. Using a variety of techniques including Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Trauma Reduction, and others we will work together to help you toward your goals. Everyone is different, so we will figure out together what helps you best. We may laugh some and cry some. We will question and explore. But you will always be respected and heard. You may even tell me I have missed the point! Then we back up and try another way to the path that works for you.

My specialties are stress, burn-out, life transitions, anxiety, depression, LGBT concerns including those of family members, chronic illness and pain, trauma recovery, and additions. In over 30 years of experience, I helped adolescents and adults from a variety of backgrounds and cultures along life’s journey. They have learned. I have probably learned more from them. Let’s work together to continue learning how you can reach for the amazing life you deserve.

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Supportive, communicative, and personable! Janet Webb helped me work through the tangle of personal, interpersonal, career, and family issues that arose with an international move during the pandemic. Her hours and availability were also flexible for a working schedule in a very different time zone. I appreciated her help on making and meeting personal goals for myself as well as working on real strategies to cope with the anxiety of moving, family issues, career changes, and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as well as tools to keep my lifelong, chronic depression in check. She helped me set, manage, and meet my goals with my life and my mental health!!

Reviewed July 2022

Because of a significant amount of childhood trauma, I have been stuck in fight or flight mode for about 17 years. Janet has helped me and given me the tools I needed to bring myself out of it, to start respecting and protecting myself, and to establish reasonable boundaries with people in my life. I have grown so much, gained more confidence, and have been working towards closing that chapter of my life and begin to look forward without constantly reminding myself of the past. I can't thank Janet enough for her time and patience with me in my journey, and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for help, or is looking to begin the healing process.

Janet is like my little angel on my shoulder. I hear her voice when things get tough. All her advice has truly helped me step back and look at life differently. Instead of overwhelming myself with the bad, I have been able to see the light of things. In a sense I feel she was placed in my life at the right time to help me. She truly cares, has a way to relate, & knows just what to say. Im so glad I decided to take a chance with BetterHelp because it has been a breath of fresh air.

I don’t really have the time to give Janet the review that she deserves at the moment. But I can tell you that she is well-suited to what I’m looking for in terms of being quick to respond in verbal dialogue with information that is on point and well-suited to the discussion in a likable relatable way that leaves me spending the week between our sessions considering what she said and attempting to apply it which in my opinion is the whole point of therapy in the first place so I personally feel that she’s doing an excellent job.
