Terry Janelle, LPCC

Terry Janelle is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with 18 years of experience. She has worked as a counselor, life coach, and consultant and helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and other challenges.

She has supported clients working through relationship and parenting concerns, eating and grief issues, ADHD, and the effects of physical or emotional trauma. She also addresses career questions, compassion fatigue, and struggles with self-esteem and motivation.

Terry uses a warm, interactive style in sessions. She treats people with respect and compassion and avoids labeling. Conversations are collaborative and paced to what feels safe for each person.

Her work draws from several approaches including client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, trauma-focused work, dialectical behavior ideas, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies. She combines these to fit each person's situation rather than following one rigid plan.

People who choose her often want practical tools and steady support while they make changes. She emphasizes clear goals and small steps. If someone is ready to begin, she guides them through the first steps toward change.

Approaches that translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's experience and priorities. The therapist listens carefully, reflects what she hears, and helps people clarify what they want to change. This approach suits people who need steady support and a respectful, accepting space.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) uses simple, practical strategies to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It often includes short exercises and homework to practice new skills between sessions and can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributions emphasize emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication - skills that help with strong emotions, impulsivity, and relationship difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they will pick or blend methods that match those needs and adjust the plan over time.

Session logistics are not listed in the biography, so confirm available online options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, make it easier to schedule during a work break, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can tailor session length and focus to your schedule and goals.
