About Janell
Janell Brown is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with 21 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, and parenting challenges. Janell focuses on helping people who carry guilt and shame related to these areas. Sessions are aimed at making space to talk through thoughts and feelings without judgment.
Janell uses a mix of practical, evidence-informed approaches. She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy to help people clarify their values and take small steps toward them.
Attachment-based work is part of how she looks at relationship patterns and early influences. Dialectical behavior therapy skills can be used for managing strong emotions and building emotional regulation. Client-centered methods guide the pace of sessions and keep the person’s experience central.
In the room she listens for what keeps a person stuck in guilt or shame. She helps people notice behaviors and beliefs that maintain those feelings. From there she supports practicing different responses and testing new habits in everyday life.
People who reach out can expect straightforward conversation and collaborative planning. Janell encourages short, manageable goals between sessions. She asks people to treat the work like a process with small steps and clear tracking of progress.
