Counselor bio

About Janelle

I am very passionate and driven to help provide my clients with compassionate, empathetic, ethical, and culturally competent care that will help them achieve their objectives and goals. I believe therapy is not one size fits all, and that treatment should be tailored according to the unique needs of every client. I will meet you wherever you are at on your journey and help guide you every step of the way. My goal is to help provide you with a safe and caring environment to help foster a collaborative relationship and give you the best chance for success. I would be honored to walk with you on your journey. Please know that you are not alone, and you matter!

You are not alone. Whatever you’re going through, there are people who care about you and want to help. You matter, and your feelings are valid.

FAQs about Janelle Wagenknecht, MA, LPCC, ADDC, NCC

However, LCSWs or LMFTs, are allowed to engage in such therapy with two different family members due to their unique training.

Unfortunately, no.

Yes, we offer teletherapy services for our clients!  Our telehealth platform is HIPAA-compliant and secure. Telehealth is typically performed over video and it's not recommended that therapy be performed with voice-only communication.  Also, you can access and utilize our telehealth platform from your smartphone!

Use the Consent to Treat Minor form to consent to your minor's counseling session.

The Consent to Treat Minor Packet serves as a legal document that grants permission for the Overcomers Counseling provider to treat your child/minor. This form is necessary in situations of divorce, where both parents have 50/50 custody of the minor.  In situations like this, both parents are required to consent to treatment. This ensures that mental healthcare providers have the authorization to provide appropriate care for minors, while also protecting their rights and well-being.

The answer to this question is entirely up to you.  Therapy is very much dependent on each individual and the goals they are interested in achieving.  Some desire short-term goals, which could last anywhere from 6-12 sessions, while others are wanting to accomplish some long-term goals which could last a year or more.

If you need help filling out the Intake Packet, give us a call at (719) 345-2424 or text us at (719) 888-5022.  We'll be happy to walk you through it!

Summary
Across hundreds of client reviews, one theme comes through again and again: people feel truly heard here. Clients describe finally finding a therapist who understood them, gaining real tools for anxiety, trauma, and anger management, and walking away from sessions feeling lighter and more hopeful. Many say Overcomers was the first place therapy actually felt like the right fit — a space to be met with warmth, patience, and genuine care on the path to becoming who they're meant to be.

Rahel has been a joy to work with so far. She's very pleasant and seems excited to help me with my mental health journey. She's very welcoming and easy to warm up. She listens intently, asks meaningful questions, gives helpful advice and affirmations, and is very responsive. She's prompt to our appointments and is very diligent in recalling and addressing things from our last session to help keep the flow and the conversation going. She's also very skilled in facilitating natural transitions in the conversation and topics. I'm very happy and grateful for her professional help!

I can just say the confidence I have today I didn't have before I met Jennifer. She taught me amazing tools for me to be the best mother I have ever been. Trauma is a thing that takes time to heal but I have this.
