Terry Janelle, LPCC

Terry Janelle is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Kentucky with 18 years of experience as a counselor, life coach, and consultant. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress and anxiety, and those managing depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, or ADHD. Terry also supports people who have survived emotional or physical trauma.

Her style is warm and interactive. She aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion without using stigmatizing labels. Sessions focus on honest conversation and practical steps you can try between meetings.

Terry adapts her work to each person. She draws from several approaches including client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, trauma-focused tools, dialectical behavior methods, and solution-focused techniques. She builds a plan that fits the individual rather than applying a single method to everyone.

Many clients come wanting help with life changes, grief, family or relationship problems, or career and purpose questions. Terry also addresses issues like anger, eating concerns, self-esteem, and caregiver stress. Her experience includes supporting people facing veteran and armed forces issues.

She invites people who are ready to make changes to start with a conversation. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session to see how the approach feels for you.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and supports the client's own decisions about change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaches practical tools to shift those patterns; it is often used for stress, anxiety, and mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, brings skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress without making things worse.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Terry will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best. That might mean starting with listening and support, then adding CBT or DBT skills, or focusing on solution-focused steps for immediate problems. The plan can change as needs and goals evolve.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practice skills between meetings in the settings where they live and work. Licensed professionals adapt their methods for remote sessions so that practical tools and emotional support remain the focus.
