Hi, I'm Janelle
I'm a Registered Psychologist (#4633) providing online counselling across Alberta. I completed my Bachelor's degree in Psychology in French at the University of Alberta’s Campus Saint-Jean, and my Master's degree in Counselling Psychology at the University of Alberta.
Healing, growth, and change can feel quite vulnerable. I pride myself on being warm and approachable. I bring experience, compassion and a playful personality to my work with clients.
In addition to working in private practice, I have also worked at the Sexual Assault Centre of Edmonton, providing counselling to people who have experienced sexual violence.
​
In my spare time I enjoy playing with my kids, reading a good book, getting together with friends for a games night, and going for walks in the beautiful Edmonton River Valley with my family.

Approaches to Therapy
Counselling is a collaborative effort, in which your self-knowledge and life experiences are valued. I will tailor my approach to counselling to meet your individual needs. My values also inform my work, and as such, I work from an intersectional-feminist and weight inclusive perspective. Below are some of the primary therapeutic approaches that guide my work with clients.
