About Janelle

Janelle Green is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Washington with five years of professional experience. She works with people facing grief, low self-esteem, depression, compassion fatigue, and major life changes. She also addresses concerns related to blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, communication problems, and feelings of isolation.

Her approach treats clients as the expert on their own lives. She uses practical conversations to identify patterns that keep problems going. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and trying straightforward changes to daily routines.

Janelle draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness-based methods. That mix is used to help people respond differently to upsetting thoughts and to build manageable habits for coping. She also uses emotionally focused ideas when relationships and communication are central to the issue.

Typical work includes setting small, measurable goals and testing new ways of reacting between sessions. She helps people track what works, adjust plans, and build confidence through repeated practice. Progress is described in concrete steps rather than abstract promises.

People who choose her often want structured, hands-on help with mood, grief, or the stress of caregiving and illness. To begin, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking a first appointment.

How CBT, ACT, and Client-Centered Work Online

Janelle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so a person can try specific experiments to see what makes a difference. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and actions - it helps people accept uncomfortable feelings while choosing steps that move toward what matters to them.

She also draws on client-centered ideas, which means conversations are driven by the person’s priorities and pace. Together they review what helps and what doesn’t, and adjust the plan as goals and needs evolve. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work and she will help decide what fits best based on the client’s goals and preferences.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work is often useful for fitting sessions into a busy week, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and avoiding travel time. Many people appreciate being able to continue steady work on mood, grief, and caregiving stress even when life is hectic, and a licensed professional can help adapt techniques to an online setting.
