About Janieth
Dr. Janieth Burton uses a practical, person-focused approach to help adults manage stress, anxiety, mood problems, and life changes. She is a licensed PA Psychologist - Pennsylvania Psychologist PS006561L with thirty years of experience.
Her work often addresses depression, bipolar issues, anger, self-esteem, career and workplace stresses, and concerns related to ADHD. She keeps language plain and meetings straightforward so worried parents and adults can quickly understand next steps. In sessions she blends conversational, evidence-based methods with reflective listening.
Background and approach
That means clients talk through problems while she offers techniques to change unhelpful thinking and build better daily habits. She also uses mindfulness skills to reduce reactivity and motivational interviewing to help with readiness for change. Dr.
Burton has long experience with adults facing college adjustment and career decisions. She also supports older adults and people coping with grief, trauma, or caregiver stress. She can explain how evaluation and assessment fit into treatment when that helps clarify concerns and goals.
Her online practice includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Those formats are used to make therapy fit into busy schedules and to keep work focused and practical. She welcomes people who want steady support and clear steps toward feeling better.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-oriented. Dr. Burton helps clients set realistic goals, track progress, and adjust the plan when needed.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-centered therapy is a collaborative way of working where the therapist listens closely and helps clients set their own goals. It is useful when someone needs support, clarity, and a steady space to talk through decisions and parenting concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing everyday behaviors. It gives concrete tools for anxiety, depression, mood swings, and problems with focus that clients can practice between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Dr. Burton will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaborative process helps clients see which techniques feel most useful for their situation.
Online formats make regular work easier to keep up. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation while phone sessions can be simpler for busy days. Live chat and text messaging let clients check in or get short-term coaching between meetings. These options support flexibility, reduce travel time, and make it easier to maintain steady progress.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
