I trust that with a welcoming and encouraging environment, there is room for healing and goal achievement. I can support you on taking the next steps that will allow you to focus on your goals and personal journey. My approach uses a foundational client centered view, CBT, solution-focused and a narrative approach.

As a practitioner I provide confidential care for you to explore your concerns in a safe, non-judgmental space. We take time to discuss your concerns and set goals that make sense to you. With my 14 years of clinical experience and with training in various evidence based practices, I will explore the areas your seeking support in. I have experience supporting individuals, couples and families. I provide various tools to help you move through your concerns whether your a visual or non visual learner. I have a sense of humor and am quite relaxed, having been told by previous clients I have a way of putting them at ease.

Life can be challenging and leave us feeling overwhelmed, stressed, anxious, or struggling to make sense of our emotions. Reaching out for help can be a difficult first step that takes real strength. I strive to create a safe space where you can confront life’s challenges with compassionate, empowering support that draws on your existing strengths. I believe you are the expert of your own life, and I am here to support you, whatever that may look like.

If working through life's challenges feels more overwhelming than staying stuck in your current situation, I would like to have the opportunity to help you navigate your way to a life worth living. Often negative thinking patterns and behaviours can influence our sense of self and impact on our family, work and school life. My goal in art psychotherapy is to assist you in discovering your potential while finding your internal voice. A client centered, anti-oppressive approach provides a safe and confidential environment to explore what matters most to you.

My practice experience includes individual, family, couples and group therapy.

I have extensive experience working with adolescent and adult populations transitioning through life stages. I support individuals and families experiencing a range of mental health challenges as I provide a unique perspective on coping with anxiety, navigating relationships, and building resiliency. Using a realistic and non-judgemental approach, I help my clients overcome obstacles and rewrite their own narratives. Making effective change isn't easy but it's never motivated by shame or criticism. I feel this is crucial when working to build self-esteem, overcome substance use dependency, alcoholism, and other forms of addiction.

My clients tend to be creative adult women who have one of four issues they want to address, trauma and PTSD, depression, grief and loss or anxiety. They are often spiritual, empathic and may have suffered narcissistic abuse. They have bravely sought peace and positive change, despite their story or childhood. They are open to creatively expressing and processing their emotions, negative life experiences and traumas. They seek an authentic down to earth therapist. At Art Therapy Guelph, I continue to experience and witness art therapy’s gentle healing powers. By joining me, you can too!

I specialize in supporting individuals like you who are navigating life's complexities to uncover new perspectives while honoring their individuality. Through collaborative exploration, I empower clients to break free from negative patterns, build resilience, and foster positive change in their lives.

Hello, my name is Janel Led. I understand how difficult life can be and I am fully invested in helping you explore internal and external factors that might be causing you to feel stuck. Through creating personalized and meaningful goals in a non-judgmental and person-centered environment, together we can start to challenge some of those self-defeating beliefs to create a more positive outlook. Furthermore, I strongly believe the client is the expert/main character in their own life, and as such, has the power within to change views of self, others, and the world if given the right environment to do so.

Our emotions and thoughts can have a significant impact on our ability to feel connected to others, achieve our goals and engage in the parts of life we find meaningful. These changes in ourselves can often be explained by challenging experiences or turbulent relationships, which leave us feeling depressed, on edge, or overwhelmed. Together, we will work to create a safe environment where you feel empowered to discuss, process, and problem solve concerns surrounding relationships, self-esteem, trauma, identity, and other topics.

Change starts with the relationship that we form in the therapy and then continues by building useful skills in and outside of our sessions. In practice this means that I fit best with clients who are interested in (1) understanding more about their thoughts and emotions while also (2) taking clear steps to improve their mental and physical well-being. My job as the therapist is to provide a warm and caring environment to support the client in this process.

Thank you for considering me as your therapist! I offer counselling and psychotherapy to individual adults.

My theoretical orientation is eclectic with an emphasis on Cognitive-Behavioral as well as Jungian approaches. My aim in therapy is to help individuals reach out into the strongest versions of themselves.

I most commonly support clients through the use of CBT, DBT, solution focused strategies and ultimately, a person centered approach.
