About Janet
Janet Nestor, LCMHC, has 23 years of counseling experience in North Carolina. She works with people aged 14 and older on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, addictions, grief, sleep and eating concerns, and related challenges.
Her style is informal and client-centered. She favors clear, honest conversation and practical strategies. Sessions often combine talk with body-focused approaches to help people notice how emotions show up in the body.
Before counseling, she worked in special education with adolescents and adults who had ADHD, learning differences, autism, and physical disabilities. That background influences how she structures sessions and supports clients who have similar needs now.
She has substantial experience with people living with chronic illness, including Lyme disease and autoimmune conditions. She also has worked with substance use concerns and individuals in long-term recovery programs. Many clients have sought her help for anxiety, panic, stress, phobias, and related symptoms.
Janet uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, somatic work, and solution-focused interventions. She aims to help people name emotions, notice patterns, and try different ways of responding.

How her approaches shape online sessions
Janet combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) with client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. EFT focuses on identifying and working with emotions and attachment patterns that keep people stuck. Client-centered methods emphasize listening and following the client’s pace to build understanding. CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviors maintain distress and introduces practical skills for change.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Janet will discuss goals, needs, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. She adapts the work over time based on what helps the client make progress.
The therapist’s biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some people find video sessions useful for face-to-face interaction, while others prefer phone sessions for lower bandwidth or quieter surroundings. Licensed professionals can adjust pace and techniques to suit the online setting and the client’s daily routine.
