Terry Janelle

Terry Janelle is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor practicing in Kentucky with 18 years of experience as a counselor, life coach, and consultant. She has worked with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and anger, and she often supports those coping with relationship strain, parenting challenges, and ADHD. Terry also has experience helping people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

Her style is warm and interactive. She treats people with respect and compassion and avoids stigmatizing labels. In sessions she listens closely, asks practical questions, and tailors the conversation to each person’s needs.

Terry uses a mix of therapy approaches instead of one fixed method. She draws from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral tools, trauma-focused practices, dialectical behavioral ideas, solution-focused techniques, and mindfulness strategies. She combines these to fit what a person says they want to change.

Typical sessions focus on clear goals and concrete steps. That might include learning new coping skills for anger, practicing ways to manage anxiety, or trying short exercises to change unhelpful thoughts. She also addresses broader life shifts like career choices, grief, or caregiver stress.

Terry emphasizes collaboration. She helps people set realistic goals, then checks progress and adjusts plans as needed. If someone wants support making a lasting change, she offers coaching-style guidance alongside counseling.

To begin, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapy approaches guide online support

Client-centered work focuses on the person’s priorities. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects concerns back, and helps build a plan that matches what matters most. This approach is often used when someone wants respect and steady listening while figuring out next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and develop new coping skills, which can help with anxiety, depression, and anger management.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches specific skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills can be useful when strong emotions, impulsivity, or relationship conflict get in the way of daily life.

Picking the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to review needs, goals, and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan if something isn’t working.

For practical matters, confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for check-ins when a brief conversation will help. Talk with the therapist about how to structure sessions so they fit routines and daily responsibilities.
