About Terry
Terry Janelle is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with 18 years of experience offering counseling, coaching, and consultation in Kentucky. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and a range of life challenges. Parents looking for practical help with parenting concerns can expect direct, understanding support.
Terry keeps her approach warm and interactive. Sessions focus on honest conversation, practical skills, and plans that fit everyday life.
Background and approach
She avoids stigmatizing labels and treats people with respect and compassion. Her work draws from several evidence-based methods, including cognitive-behavioral techniques, trauma-focused work, dialectical behavior strategies, client-centered listening, and solution-focused steps. Terry combines these to match each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.
Clients can expect a mix of talking, skill practice, and short-term goals when appropriate. Terry helps people break down problems into manageable steps and build new ways of coping. She also supports people processing grief, caregiver stress, relationship strain, and identity concerns.
Over nearly two decades, she has guided people through parenting stress, ADHD challenges, mood changes, and career uncertainty. Her style aims to empower people to make steady change. If someone is ready to try therapy, she helps them identify clear next steps and realistic goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and How They Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and building a trusting connection so the person feels heard and understood. It helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort out feelings and make decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches simple steps to change them. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it emphasizes concrete coping skills and short-term goals.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills. It can help people who feel overwhelmed by intense emotions or who struggle with impulsivity.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaborative selection can happen in early sessions and evolve over time.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people work face-to-face when a visual connection matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or appearance are concerns. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins or ongoing support possible without scheduling a full session. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep progress moving forward.
