About Janet

Janet Haywood is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina and a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in South Carolina with ten years of practice. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and the practical strains of parenting and career change. Janet writes that she uses talk therapy to help people understand symptoms, set goals, and choose a path forward.

Janet often addresses life transitions and caregiving stress. She also lists adoption and foster care, postpartum and perinatal concerns, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and issues tied to veteran and armed forces experiences. Her practice includes support for mood disorders, social anxiety, and struggles with guilt and forgiveness.

Her stated approaches include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. In sessions she aims to clarify what a client is experiencing and to build a professional, trusting relationship. That includes practical strategies as well as ways to notice unhelpful thinking patterns.

Janet reports experience with crisis management and with diagnoses such as bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder, anxiety disorders, major depressive disorder, and postpartum depression. She frames recovery as an individual process and focuses on helping people set realistic goals. Sessions are presented as conversational and focused on problem-solving.

She offers services in English and holds licenses listed as SC LISW and NC LCSW. The site matching process asks prospective clients to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session to begin.

BHow sessions work

How Janet integrates approaches for online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what a person says. It helps people feel heard and identify their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors together and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thinking and coping patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills that can reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day functioning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Janet will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best. That means trying concrete tools, checking what helps, and adjusting plans based on goals and preferences.

The biography does not specify which session formats she currently offers, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time so work and caregiving obligations interfere less with care. Therapists can also adapt mindfulness and CBT exercises to work in a virtual session, and DBT skills can be practiced between meetings to reinforce learning.
