About Dr. Janelle -

Born and raised in Virginia, I always cared about engaging with others. Right after attending Wake Forest University, I earned my doctoral degree in clinical and school psychology from the University of Virginia. I completed my pre-doctoral internship at the Vanderbilt University and then completed a post-doctoral fellowship with Emory Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. I am a licensed clinical psychology in the states of Georgia and Virginia and conduct teletherapy in 30+ states.

​

I work as an assistant professor of psychology at the University of Richmond. There, my research investigates the intersections of trauma, identity, and significant life transitions as it relates to mental health and wellness.

​

I feel passionately about the meaningful and reciprocal connection that bridges teaching, practice, and research seamlessly.
