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 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

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

Couples counseling is typically not covered by insurance. This is because many insurance companies consider relationship counseling as not medically necessary, therefore, it falls outside the standard coverage. Please visit our Costs to learn more about our rates.  

Yes!  Health First Colorado (Medicaid CO) is broken up into seven regions (RAEs), and Overcomers is in-network with all regions.  On rare occasions, Overcomers may not be able to accept a client with specific stipulations with their Medicaid benefits.  Upon booking a session, Overcomers will verify your benefits.

If you have called your insurance and the representative told you that your particular counselor is out-of-network, that is because we submit claims under our group name (Overcomers Counseling) and/or our clinical admin (Jennifer Luttman, LPC) and both of which are in-network.  We accept most major insurances and will provide you an estimated cost prior to your session.

If we happen to fall outside of your insurance network, we can provide you with a superbill. A superbill is a detailed receipt of the services you received which you can submit to your insurance provider for potential reimbursement.

Medicaid members will usually have a $0 copay for counseling or psychiatry.

Please visit our Cost page to learn more about our rates and accepted insurances

Medicaid covers a wide range of mental health services at Overcomers Counseling, including individual therapy, family therapy, psychiatric evaluations, and medication management. Our providers work in solution-focused, client-centered, and other evidence-based approaches, tailored to your goals and needs, all within a safe and respectful environment. Coverage is available across our Colorado Springs, Aurora, Fort Collins, and Pueblo locations, plus statewide teletherapy. Upon booking a session, Overcomers will verify your specific benefits.

A copay, or copayment, is a fixed amount that you, as the client, are required to pay for each counseling when we bill your insurance. The exact amount varies based on your specific health insurance plan.

A counseling session will usually have the same copay as a PCP (Primary Care Physician) visit and/or an Office Visit.  If you have a copay plan, you'll sometimes see your copay listed on your insurance card.

In order to use Telehealth, your web browser needs to have access to your camera and microphone. This is what allows the other participant in a video call to see and hear you. Typically, you may only need to explicitly allow access to your camera and microphone once, but the following instructions outline how to ensure therapy portal can access your camera and microphone in each major browser.

To quickly join your telehealth/virtual session, visit our Client Portal Telehealth. Select your Provider and Join Waiting Room. You don't need to log in to the Client Portal; however, if you want to manage your appointments, you'll need to log in.

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.

Kaitlyn Chiasson, LPCC, NCC
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Kaitlyn was patient and kind, but she also gave me a different perspective to look at various things in my life. She truly made a difference and I'm only leaving because I'm moving out of state wish I could keep seeing her!! Recommend her to anyone!

Emily Ladd, LSW
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Its difficult to put into words the amount of help Emily has provided me without crying. When I first started this journey like most men I was skeptical at best. And had failed every time I attempted counseling. I knew I needed help but I didn’t know what I needed, thru this first 90 days not only have I felt heard but have worked thru EDM exercises, and have been able to put a name to a lot of the issues I’m facing while also understand you don’t have to be broken forever. She has been extremely patient with me, but also very good at challenging me at the same time. She has given me great resources that fit my life style (I’m not sitting down reading a book but I will listen to a podcast while I’m driving) she truly has been a blessing to not only me but also my children as my relationship is improving with them as well.
