About Janet
Janet Langtry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 27 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, parenting challenges, career questions, and ADHD-related concerns. Janet also supports people dealing with relationship strain, anger, and major life changes.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on the problems you bring and on skills you can use between sessions. Janet adapts how she talks and plans work to each person’s needs rather than using a fixed script.
Over nearly three decades she has helped people navigate blended family issues, divorce and separation, attachment and abandonment concerns, and caregiver stress. She has also worked with clients coping with chronic illness, cancer, fertility challenges, and body-image struggles. This background gives her a broad perspective on how life stressors can interact.
In sessions she addresses communication problems, codependency, and the everyday pressures that come with starting a new job, changing roles, or managing study and work. Janet uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and practical coaching-style tools to help people build coping strategies and clearer thinking patterns.
People who meet with her can expect direct conversations about goals and next steps. She asks about immediate problems, then helps set small, achievable tasks. Her work aims to make daily life more manageable and to reduce the stress that gets in the way of ordinary routines.
Therapeutic approaches and online work
Janet uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change and coping. One approach emphasizes skills training and problem solving to reduce anxiety and manage stress. This helps people handle day-to-day pressure, work demands, and study-related stress.Another strand of her work concentrates on processing grief and trauma in manageable steps. This involves creating clear goals for what to address in sessions, learning ways to tolerate difficult memories, and building routines that support recovery from loss or abusive experiences.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Janet collaborates with each person to decide which techniques suit their goals and preferences. She reviews options, tracks progress, and adjusts plans when something isn’t working.
If you want online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking since they are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow check-ins during a lunch break, and reduce travel time. It can also let someone choose shorter phone or video check-ins when that fits their schedule better than longer in-person visits.
