About Janelle
Janelle Butler is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who helps people facing depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and related concerns. She speaks English and American Sign Language and practices with nine years of clinical experience. She works with people who struggle with mood shifts, addictions, relationship challenges, and life transitions.
Janelle began her career in community mental health in the greater Seattle area and now practices out of the East Coast while continuing to serve Washington and beyond. That background exposed her to many different life situations and ways people cope with pain. She notices how avoidance can cause feelings to build up and make life harder over time.
In sessions she helps clients name unhelpful patterns and beliefs. Then she works with them to change those patterns or change how they see them. She aims for steps that bring relief now while also building longer-term skills that last.
Hope and connection are important to her approach. She focuses on helping people find meaning after loss and move toward steadier emotional ground. Janelle offers a supportive presence while helping clients learn practical tools and new ways of relating to themselves and others.
Her practice draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She invites prospective clients to share their goals so they can shape a plan together.
