Clinic Lead & Founder

​​​

Hi, I’m Janelle. I’m a Registered Counselling Therapist and the owner of The Wellness Couch. I specialize in supporting individuals who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck in difficult relationships, struggling with guilt & fear, processing grief, trauma, and transition, or just trying to figure out their next steps.​ 

​​

With my training background and experience, I primarily work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, parenting, grief, and major life transitions. I also have a special interest in supporting students and academics, those going through divorce and breakups, women who are in postpartum life, and those working in high-stress professions like healthcare, emergency response, agriculture, and fishing.

​

My therapy style is friendly, approachable, and grounded in the belief that therapy is a conversation—sometimes deep, sometimes light, but always authentic & real. Therapy doesn’t need to be stiff or formal. It’s a place where we can connect authentically and find places where we can pivot and grow. 

​

I’m not the “quiet therapist” who just nods along. My style is direct, engaging (I might even add fun at times), and meant to challenge you. We laugh, cry and curse in my sessions. I’m here to sit with you help you in a way that feels both supportive and empowering. I want you to feel like you!

​

I offer in-person and virtual therapy, couples therapy, and Walk & Talk outdoor sessions for those who feel more comfortable processing their thoughts in motion.

​

Whatever brings you here, know that you don’t have to figure it all out alone. Please reach out! I'm here to help.
