About Janelle

Janelle Murray, LCSW, CSW, is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who earned a Master of Social Work from Savannah State University and a Bachelor of Science in Child and Family Development from Georgia Southern University. She has provided therapeutic support since 2014, working with people from varied cultural and demographic backgrounds and focusing particularly on women and adolescents who are survivors of abuse. Drawing on years of in-home practice, she is experienced at building rapport quickly and helping individuals and families feel more comfortable engaging with services.

Her clinical work emphasizes crisis management and stabilization, practical stress management strategies, and strength-building to help clients navigate interpersonal and intrapersonal conflict. Janelle applies a strengths-based perspective that guides clients to identify existing resources and solutions within their lives, then build on those assets to reach meaningful goals. She approaches therapy with genuine passion for helping others and creating a supportive environment where clients can clarify priorities and develop new coping skills.

Janelle works with a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, LGBT matters, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting and caregiver stress, anger, self-esteem, career and workplace issues, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. Her practice also addresses communication problems, divorce and separation, forgiveness, life purpose, post-traumatic stress, and self-love.

Therapeutic approaches and how online therapy supports them

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s goals and values guide the work. The therapist listens attentively and supports clients as they explore feelings, identify strengths, and make choices that align with their needs - useful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that helps clients recognize and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It is effective for stress, anxiety, depression, and habit-related issues by teaching concrete strategies for managing symptoms and improving daily functioning.

Narrative Therapy invites clients to examine the stories they tell about themselves and their lives, then reframe those narratives to emphasize resilience and possibility. This approach can help with trauma recovery, identity questions, and shifting perspectives around difficult experiences.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the therapeutic process, and Janelle collaborates with each client to tailor approaches to their goals, preferences, and situation. She works with clients to test strategies and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and access care from a preferred location. These options support consistent engagement and allow therapists and clients to choose the format that best suits each phase of treatment.
