About Janna

Janna Fennell is a licensed counselor with ten years of clinical experience who works with teens and young adults as well as families and school-aged children. She combines empathy and a mind-body perspective to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and attachment concerns, addiction, sleep difficulties, career questions, and other life transitions. Janna draws on evidence-based methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, and CBT for Insomnia, while also integrating experiential play techniques and practical relaxation practices such as progressive muscle relaxation, breathwork, and mindfulness meditation.

Her approach is direct yet collaborative - she asks thought-provoking questions, gives straightforward feedback delivered with compassion, and provides concrete tools clients can use between sessions. Janna emphasizes consistent participation and a willingness to engage in the sometimes challenging work of self-reflection so that clients can move past patterns of avoidance, self-sabotage, or entrenched coping strategies that once protected them but no longer serve them.

Janna holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and English with a theater minor from Dartmouth College and a Master of Arts in Counseling from Bethel University. She is credentialed as LPC and LPCC - state licenses that recognize her training and clinical qualifications - and maintains experience in school-based therapy, private practice, and online care. She is also a certified yoga instructor (CYT-200) and is pursuing further training in integrative mental health. Janna encourages motivated individuals to take the next step and offers a practical, strengths-focused partnership for change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns to change emotions and behaviors. It is practical and skill-based, often used to address anxiety, depression, insomnia, and stress-related problems. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence current connections and emotional responses - it helps people understand abandonment, codependency, and communication or intimacy challenges so they can form healthier bonds. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, accept difficult internal experiences, and take committed action toward a meaningful life; it is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and chronic distress.



Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Janna will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then tailor techniques from these therapies to fit the individual. She emphasizes partnership - clients and therapist decide together which strategies to try and adjust as therapy progresses.



Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing people to meet via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, continue work from a distance, and maintain consistent engagement. Licensed professionals can deliver the same core therapeutic work through these formats, using exercises, homework, and skills practice adapted for remote care.
