About Janelle

Janelle Clarke-Evers is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Georgia with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on common struggles like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, motivation, and relationship concerns. Her approach aims to make beginning therapy feel manageable and straightforward for someone taking that first step.

She creates a calm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where people can say what they are thinking and feeling. Conversations are practical and direct, with space to reflect and try different ways to cope.

Background and approach

She offers guidance while listening closely to each person’s goals. Her toolbox includes techniques from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy to help change unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also draws on mindfulness practices to slow down overwhelming feelings and on motivational interviewing to build momentum for change.

For relationship concerns she uses elements of the Gottman Method to improve communication and problem solving. Sessions typically focus on short, clear goals that match what a person wants to change. Janelle will talk through coping skills, communication strategies, and step-by-step plans that can be practiced between sessions.

The pace is set by the client and adjusted as progress is made. Parents and caregivers often look for straightforward ways to manage stress and family tension, and she aims to offer realistic tools for those situations. People can expect a supportive, solution-focused style that keeps everyday life in view while addressing deeper emotional patterns.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Client-centered therapy is built around listening and following what matters most to the person in front of her. It helps people feel heard and shapes sessions around their priorities rather than a preset plan. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and improve daily functioning. The Gottman Method offers practical tools for improving communication and managing conflict in relationships, using clear skills people can practice at home.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Janelle will talk with each person about goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust methods together as needed. That collaborative process helps people feel more confident about what to try and why it might help.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy accessible around a busy schedule. These options let people work on stress, parenting concerns, relationship communication, and mood from home or wherever they are. The flexibility supports consistent progress while fitting into everyday life.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Gottman Method

A research-based framework for couples, focused on how partners argue, repair, and stay connected. Practical and structured, with exercises to try between sessions.
