My name is Janet Webb, and I have been teaching and counseling people my entire adult life. My original focus was education; and I worked as a teacher in public, private, and higher education for almost 20 years. Throughout it all, I have been the “listening ear” when others talked about their concerns, so becoming a counselor was just the right path to follow. My 30+ years of counseling experience in Missouri includes work in a community agency, corrections, private practice, public speaking, and insurance.
You are the expert on you, so our work together starts with you helping me understand your concerns and what you want to achieve. Using a variety of techniques including Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Trauma Reduction, and others we will work together to help you toward your goals. Everyone is different, so we will figure out together what helps you best. We may laugh some and cry some. We will question and explore. But you will always be respected and heard. You may even tell me I have missed the point! Then we back up and try another way to the path that works for you.
My specialties are stress, burn-out, life transitions, anxiety, depression, LGBT concerns including those of family members, chronic illness and pain, trauma recovery, and additions. In over 30 years of experience, I helped adolescents and adults from a variety of backgrounds and cultures along life’s journey. They have learned. I have probably learned more from them. Let’s work together to continue learning how you can reach for the amazing life you deserve.
Additional areas of focus:Addictions, Relationship issues, Trauma and abuse, Intimacy-related issues, Parenting issues, Anger management, Coping with life changes, Compassion fatigue, ADHD, Aging and geriatric issues, Body image, Caregiver issues and stress, Chronic pain, illness, and disability, Co-morbidity, Codependency, Commitment issues, Communication problems, Control issues, Divorce and separation, Drug and alcohol addiction, Emptiness, Family of origin issues, Forgiveness, Gender dysphoria, Guilt and shame, Hospice and end-of-life counseling, Infidelity, Isolation / loneliness, Jealousy, Life purpose, Men's issues, Midlife crisis, Veteran and Armed Forces Issues, Mood disorders, Obsessions, compulsions, and OCD, Panic disorder and panic attacks, Polyamory / non-monogamous relationships, Postpartum depression, Post-traumatic stress, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), Self-harm, Self-love, Sexual assault and abuse, Smoking / vaping cessation, Social anxiety and phobia, Somatization, Women's issues, Workplace issues, Young adult issues

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Janet Webb. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I’m always so excited to meet with Janet. I’m only a few sessions in, but she does a great job of getting the full picture out of me, she’s easy to chat with, and offers perspectives that sometimes completely validate my experiences, and other times help me see things in ways I haven’t considered. I can tell her anything and everything knowing that I will be met with support, understanding, and a game plan, and never judgment.

Janet is very helpful. We’ve only had two meetings but she checks in a lot and is always available and has made a tremendous impact on me.

Janet made me feel so comfortable from the minute I met her and she is an excellent listener and really gets to what you need assistance with. I could not be happier that I was matched with her. Thank you Janet!

Janet shows compassion, empathy and knowledge in each session. She is a wonderful human with a great sense of humor.

Because of a significant amount of childhood trauma, I have been stuck in fight or flight mode for about 17 years. Janet has helped me and given me the tools I needed to bring myself out of it, to start respecting and protecting myself, and to establish reasonable boundaries with people in my life. I have grown so much, gained more confidence, and have been working towards closing that chapter of my life and begin to look forward without constantly reminding myself of the past. I can't thank Janet enough for her time and patience with me in my journey, and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for help, or is looking to begin the healing process.

Janet is very kind and has helped me a lot in my struggles with gender identity. She’s quick to respond to questions and our phone sessions are always productive and I come out feeling accomplished and with a list of things to do!

Janet gives me tools and suggestions on how to move forward and heal. In the past, therapists have simply listened to my various problems / issues which did not help me move past them.

Supportive, communicative, and personable! Janet Webb helped me work through the tangle of personal, interpersonal, career, and family issues that arose with an international move during the pandemic. Her hours and availability were also flexible for a working schedule in a very different time zone. I appreciated her help on making and meeting personal goals for myself as well as working on real strategies to cope with the anxiety of moving, family issues, career changes, and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as well as tools to keep my lifelong, chronic depression in check. She helped me set, manage, and meet my goals with my life and my mental health!!

I just started therapy with Janet and I feel she was the best match for me! I look forward to our talks every week and feel like I'm already making progress. She has given me many great resources (books, studies, etc...) to help my journey. I can't wait to learn more and grow with the help of a great new mentor!

Janet is like my little angel on my shoulder. I hear her voice when things get tough. All her advice has truly helped me step back and look at life differently. Instead of overwhelming myself with the bad, I have been able to see the light of things. In a sense I feel she was placed in my life at the right time to help me. She truly cares, has a way to relate, & knows just what to say. Im so glad I decided to take a chance with BetterHelp because it has been a breath of fresh air.

I've only had one video session with Janet so far but I feel like I've known her my whole life. She is so easy to talk to and has great advice. She responds to messages quickly. I look forward to continuing to work with her.

She is a fantastic counselor and is helping me get to the bottom of things and showing me tools I never thought of to help me manage my mind, instead of the other way around.

I don’t really have the time to give Janet the review that she deserves at the moment. But I can tell you that she is well-suited to what I’m looking for in terms of being quick to respond in verbal dialogue with information that is on point and well-suited to the discussion in a likable relatable way that leaves me spending the week between our sessions considering what she said and attempting to apply it which in my opinion is the whole point of therapy in the first place so I personally feel that she’s doing an excellent job.

I have really enjoyed my counselling sessions with Janet. She spent the first session really delving in to the issues I wanted to talk about and made me feel heard. She’s personable, approachable, and genuinely kind and she gives her full attention when speaking to you. There is nothing more I could ask for from my counsellor.
