Janna Fennell, LPC, LPCC

Janna Fennell is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPC, LPCC) with ten years of clinical experience based in Minnesota. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, relationship and family strain, grief, sleep problems, career stress, and depression. She also addresses attachment and abandonment issues, body image, codependency, and other related concerns.

Her approach is straightforward and practical. She asks direct questions, offers feedback, and teaches skills to practice between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a central tool she uses to help people notice thoughts that fuel unhelpful behavior and replace them with different actions.

Janna describes therapy as sometimes uncomfortable and work-heavy. She encourages consistent attendance and active participation. Progress often requires reflection and doing exercises outside the session, and she helps clients build those habits.

Her background includes a Bachelor of Arts from Dartmouth College and a Master of Arts in Counseling from Bethel University. She holds LPC licensure in Virginia and LPCC licensure in Minnesota. Her work history includes school-based therapy with PreK–12 students, private practice, and online counseling with teens and young adults, which shaped her practical, skills-focused style.

Sessions often cover skill building for emotion regulation, techniques for sleep and anxiety, and strategies to reduce self-sabotage. Janna aims to be honest and direct while collaborating with clients on goals and next steps.
