About Janet

Janet Bloodgood is a licensed psychologist who practices in Florida and New Jersey and brings 30 years of experience to her work. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Janet speaks English and aims to make the first steps toward help feel manageable and straightforward.

Her approach begins with respect for each person's story and strengths. She believes clients are the experts on their own lives and uses that perspective to guide conversations. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings, along with space to talk through difficult feelings.

Janet often helps people facing attachment and abandonment worries, body image struggles, caregiver stress, and communication or control issues. She also supports people dealing with divorce or separation, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, and trouble finding life purpose.

Over three decades, she has worked with panic attacks, panic disorder, money and financial worries, and grief related to loss. Her style is steady and encouraging, aimed at building confidence and clearer coping skills. She invites people to take the first step and recognizes that reaching out for help takes courage.

To begin, Janet asks prospective clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to her availability. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, with fees that vary by location and availability.

Evidence-based approaches and how they translate to online work

Janet uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage emotions and life changes. One common approach focuses on teaching practical coping skills for anxiety and panic, such as breathing strategies, grounding exercises, and step-by-step exposure to feared situations when appropriate. These techniques aim to reduce intense symptoms and increase a person's sense of control.

Another approach emphasizes understanding attachment and relational patterns. This work helps people recognize how early relationships shape current expectations and communication, and then practices new ways of connecting and setting boundaries that feel healthier and more effective.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Janet will work with each person to identify goals, try different strategies, and adjust the plan based on what is most helpful. Clients and therapist make decisions together about what to focus on and how quickly to progress.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session options when you book because the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. For some people, audio-only sessions use less bandwidth and feel simpler, while video sessions allow more visual cues for emotional connection. Check current options before scheduling to choose what fits your routine and needs.
