About Janelle
Janelle Green is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing grief, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She emphasizes practical steps and steady support for people who feel stuck or overwhelmed. Janelle frames clients as the expert on their own story and focuses on building strengths and confidence. Her approach is warm and encouraging for anyone ready to take a first step toward change.
With five years of practice in Washington, Janelle draws on several evidence-informed methods to tailor care to each person. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice what matters and respond with intention. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and build different patterns in daily life.
Client-Centered Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy influence how she listens and helps people name feelings. Sessions typically focus on clear goals, small experiments, and skills that carry into everyday routines. Janelle also addresses concerns related to codependency, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and hospice or end-of-life challenges.
People work with her on communication struggles, control issues, guilt and shame, and the loneliness that often follows big transitions. She encourages realistic steps and ongoing self-compassion while tracking progress together. The tone in sessions tends to be practical, patient, and respectful of each person's pace and priorities.
Those interested in beginning a conversation can expect straightforward guidance about next steps and what the first sessions will involve. Janelle aims to make the process clear so people can decide if her style fits their needs.
Approaches and how online therapy can fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing values and taking small steps toward them even when feelings are hard. It can help with depression, grief, and decisions that follow big life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and helps people test out different responses to improve mood and behavior.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match goals and preferences. That means checking in early and adjusting tools if something feels unhelpful.
