About me

Hello, I'm Janet Ferrell. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Service Provider additionally. I have worked in mental health for over 30 years in a variety of settings. I have worked with individuals with addiction issues, domestic violence, mental health issues, inpatient and outpatient treatment. I have a background of working with adolescents and adults but not small children.

I have experience in many types of therapy but excel in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I enjoy mindfulness and guided imagery techniques. I believe therapy must be individualized to the client and not a one fits all experience. We are all unique and special in our own ways. I strive to create a safe space where the client feels comfortable opening up.

I hope to hear from you so we can start the journey of therapy together. It takes a brave person to pursue change but I believe if that is your goal it can be achieved.

I’ve only had a few sessions with Janet but I feel like she really listens to understand instead of respond.

Janet helped me in ways that others couldn’t. I now can confidently say I have the skills set and mindset to stop an anxiety and panic attack in its tracks. I will recommend her every day to anybody. We had so much in common, which helped the conversation flow smoothly every session. I will miss her dearly and always will think about her when I conquer something that makes me anxious and or take on new Things in my life. She is so sweet and kindhearted and easy to talk to. Thank you Janet Ferrell.
