About Janna Fennell
Janna Fennell welcomes people who are ready to take a meaningful step toward changing patterns that no longer serve them. She recognizes that therapy can be both helpful and challenging, requiring honest self-reflection, patience, and effort; because she has been in therapy herself, she knows how difficult it can feel to face the less comfortable parts of one’s life. Janna's approach is direct yet compassionate - she offers honest feedback and practical tools while holding space for hard work and growth.
Her style blends a mind-body perspective with evidence-based methods. She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and solution-focused strategies alongside progressive muscle relaxation, mindfulness meditation, and breathwork. Janna is a certified yoga instructor (CYT-200) and is completing training in Integrative Mental Health, which informs her holistic view of wellbeing. She invites collaboration in sessions, asks thought-provoking questions, and provides actionable tasks to practice between meetings, expecting consistent engagement to support meaningful change.
Janna has a background working in school-based settings with PreK-12 students and their families, and she has provided therapy in private practice and online to teens and young adults. She has training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), and Experiential Play Therapy. With ten years of clinical experience, she works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, attachment challenges, relationship difficulties, addiction, anger, self-esteem, and life transitions.
Educationally, 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 licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC in Virginia (VA LPC 0701013160) and as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - LPCC in Minnesota (MN LPCC 2490). Janna positions therapy as a collaborative process: she guides and encourages clients who are motivated to do the work and helps them develop skills they can continue to use long after formal therapy ends.
