About Janelle

Janelle Green is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Washington with five years of practice experience. She works with adults dealing with grief, low self-esteem, depression, compassion fatigue, and major life changes. She also addresses related concerns such as blended family issues, caregiving stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, and communication problems.

Janelle treats each person as the expert on their own story. In sessions she listens for the ways family patterns and roles from childhood continue to affect current life. She helps people notice how those patterns show up in relationships, work, and parenting choices. Sessions focus on practical steps that can change day-to-day functioning rather than only talking about the past.

Her approach blends techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral methods, emotionally-focused work, mindfulness, and a client-centered stance. That mix is used to help manage mood, reduce unhelpful thinking, and build small, meaningful behavior changes. She also integrates strategies for coping with loss, chronic illness, and caregiver strain.

People can expect direct, clear conversations about goals and next steps. Janelle supports people who want to understand how family of origin issues shape their current reactions and patterns. She encourages steady, measurable changes that fit into real life.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the platform's online process. Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that align with them. It helps when persistent thoughts or avoidance get in the way of living the life someone wants. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thought patterns and behavior loops and uses practical exercises to change them. It is often used for depression and low mood to build clearer thinking and steady habits.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best based on goals, current struggles, and preferences. That means sessions can shift over time as needs change and progress is made.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. They can also allow for quieter, camera-off conversations or shorter check-in appointments when life is hectic. Licensed professionals guide practical, consistent steps so therapy can fit into everyday life.
