About Janetta
Janetta Berry- Sissoko is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPCC) and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Texas. She focuses on parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety, depression, and related challenges. Janetta offers practical, straightforward support aimed at making day-to-day life more manageable for people juggling caregiving and other responsibilities.
She uses a warm, collaborative style in sessions. Janetta listens first, then helps people spot unhelpful thinking and small behavior changes that can make a difference.
Background and approach
Sessions are individualized and paced to match each person's circumstances and goals. Janetta uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which breaks big problems into manageable parts. She helps clients notice thinking patterns, try new coping strategies, and track what works.
The approach is action-oriented and focused on real-life change. With ten years of experience in the mental and behavioral health field, Janetta has worked with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, bipolar mood issues, substance use, grief, and compassion fatigue. That background informs how she helps people set realistic goals and build skills they can use at home.
Practical matters are part of the work. Janetta can help with sleep routines, managing anger, coping during life changes, and juggling career demands alongside parenthood. Her sessions aim to leave people with clear next steps they can try between meetings.

How CBT and online sessions can help with parenting stress
Janetta primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. CBT helps people break down stressful situations, try small changes, and notice what improves in daily life.She emphasizes practical techniques that translate to home life, such as step-by-step behavior plans, sleep routines, and coping tools for anger or anxiety. These methods are suited to parents who need concrete strategies they can use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Janetta will work with clients to match methods to their goals and preferences, adjusting as progress is made. The plan is shaped by the client's experiences, needs, and what feels doable in their routine.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls let people connect face-to-face when video helps the work, phone sessions can be a quicker option with less bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging support brief check-ins or ongoing coaching between meetings. These options make it easier to fit sessions around caregiving, work, and life demands while keeping therapy practical and consistent.
