About Janell
Janell Brown is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with 21 years of experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety and addresses relationship and family concerns, along with trauma and abuse. Janell focuses on practical conversations that help clients name and work through what feels overwhelming.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside other approaches to look at how emotions and attachment shape everyday patterns. Sessions are conversational and aimed at making feelings easier to identify and talk about. Janell also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive techniques when helpful.
Her work includes attention to parenting stress, communication problems, and issues that follow separation or divorce. She also addresses abandonment, attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, guilt, and shame. Janell helps people notice behavioral patterns and try small changes that can make daily life feel more manageable.
People meet her to sort through impulsivity, isolation, questions about life purpose, and mood concerns. She also brings multicultural awareness to conversations about identity and relationships. Janell keeps language straightforward and focuses on what clients want to change or understand.
If someone is unsure how to begin, she asks practical questions to clarify goals and priorities. The first few sessions typically outline what the client wants to work on and which tools will be tried next.
Using EFT, ACT, and Attachment work in online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and how they shape close connections. It helps people put words to feelings and notice how emotions influence behavior in relationships. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches ways to accept difficult feelings while choosing actions that reflect personal values and goals. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect present relationship patterns and helps people try new ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and together decide which methods to use. That collaborative process means techniques can shift as therapy progresses to fit what actually helps.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people join from locations that are convenient for them and may make scheduling around work or caregiving responsibilities simpler. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises for remote sessions so emotional work and behavioral practice continue between meetings.
