About Janet

Janet Ferrell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who also holds Mental Health Service Provider credentials and has been working in mental health for 37 years. She has practiced across a range of settings, including inpatient and outpatient treatment, and has established experience treating addiction, domestic violence, trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, and related challenges. She has worked extensively with adolescents and adults and does not work with small children.

Janet emphasizes evidence-based methods and is especially skilled in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). She also incorporates mindfulness and guided imagery techniques to help people build practical skills for managing stress, improving sleep, handling difficult emotions, and coping with life transitions. Her approach is client-centered - tailoring treatment to each person rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

Throughout her career she has supported individuals and families dealing with grief, relationship struggles, parenting concerns, substance issues, bipolar disorder, and other complex presentations. Janet aims to foster an environment where people feel comfortable sharing and exploring change at a pace that fits their needs. She welcomes inquiries from those ready to begin the work of therapy and supports clients in taking the steps toward their goals.

Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Janet Ferrell draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide her online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, and it is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress management. DBT emphasizes building skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness, making it a strong fit for people managing intense emotions, relationship difficulties, or patterns that lead to conflict.

She also uses client-centered principles, which prioritize the individual’s goals and perspective, ensuring that treatment is shaped around what matters most to the person rather than a rigid protocol. Janet approaches therapy collaboratively, helping clients explore options and determine which techniques and strategies best align with their needs, goals, and preferences.

Online therapy with Janet is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice new skills between sessions, and access support from home or other convenient locations, while working with a licensed professional who tailors the approach to each client.
