About Terry
Terry Janelle is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, LPCC, practicing in Kentucky with 18 years of experience as a counselor, life coach, and consultant. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. Terry also supports those coping with life changes, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting, and ADHD among other issues.
Her background includes long-term clinical work with adults dealing with emotional and behavioral challenges. She has helped people who experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse and has guided clients through career shifts, caregiving strain, and attachment questions. Her years in practice include coaching and consulting roles as well as counseling.
Terry’s approach mixes several methods. She draws from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness practices, solution-focused methods, and trauma-focused ideas. In sessions she listens, reflects, and introduces strategies people can try between meetings.
Sessions emphasize practical skills for managing strong feelings, reducing reactive behavior, and improving communication. She also addresses impulsivity, codependency, commitment worries, and problems that come from family of origin dynamics. People learn short exercises and steps to use when emotion rises.
Her style is interactive and goal-oriented. Treatment plans evolve from regular conversations and agreed goals. For prospective clients she asks you to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to begin the process.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. It helps people clarify what matters to them and set goals for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns and manage anger or anxiety.Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. It is useful for impulsivity, strong reactivity, and improving communication under stress. These methods are taught in simple steps and practiced in sessions so people can use them in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Terry will help decide which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking since this profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some people find phone sessions require less bandwidth and are easier during a busy day, while video sessions let you practice communication skills with visual feedback. Discuss format choices when you schedule the first session to find what fits your routine.
