Welcome! I’m Ania Telfer, a Certified Canadian Counsellor (CCC), professional artist, and experienced art therapy counsellor serving Edmonton, Alberta and nearby communities including St. Albert, Sherwood Park, Beaumont, Leduc, Stony Plain, and Morinville. I offer online and in-person counselling for individuals, couples, and families, combining talk therapy, psychotherapy, and arts-based approaches to support your mental health, wellbeing, and personal growth.
My Approach to Art Therapy Counselling
In my practice, we combine evidence-based talk therapy techniques with expressive art therapy, mindfulness, somatic approaches, and narrative methods. Art provides a safe and powerful way to explore feelings, build resilience, and reconnect with your purpose and inspiration. Through this integrative approach, we work together to:
-
Process emotions and life challenges
-
Explore your creativity and inner wisdom
-
Strengthen relationships and communication
-
Rediscover hope, joy, and balance
Why Choose Arts-Based Counselling?
Art therapy counselling helps you:
✅ Access feelings that are difficult to express verbally
✅ Rewire neural pathways for healing and growth
✅ Integrate body, mind, emotions, and spirit
✅ Build courage to move toward your goals
