The Support Station offers a range of counseling and psychotherapy services designed to provide support for every journey, helping individuals navigate life's challenges. We utilize evidence-based approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT), and mindfulness-based strategies to address various mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, grief, substance use, addiction, and life transitions. Our services are tailored to each client's unique needs, fostering a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment that encourages growth, healing, and resilience. Whether clients are seeking short-term counseling or longer-term therapy, we are committed to helping them build coping skills, strengthen relationships, and improve overall well-being. If you need assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Currently, The Support Station offers services exclusively through its owner and director, Janalyn M. Dodds, MSW, BSW, RSW. If you’re looking for counseling or support for every journey, you can contact us for more information.
Janalyn's educational background spans an impressive seven years, during which she earned two college diplomas from Fleming College in Peterborough, ON—one in Social Services and the other in Mental Health & Addictions. She was then accepted into the Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) program at Trent University, a highly competitive program that allows only 30 students to enroll each year. Finally, Janalyn attended the University of Waterloo, where she obtained her Master's degree in Social Work (MSW).
As a Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW), Janalyn has also obtained certification in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) through Wilfred Laurier University. She is dedicated to expanding her knowledge and abilities in the field of mental health to provide the best support possible.
In spring 2025, Janalyn was invited to be a guest on Community Records, a podcast by One City Peterborough, a local not-for-profit organization that provides support for every journey. Community Records is promoted as 'a space for real conversations about community - its challenges, its resilience, and the voices that shape it', including discussions around mental health and counseling. If you would like to learn more or contact us, we’re here to help.
We understand that financial constraints can be a significant barrier to accessing mental health counseling for some individuals. That’s why the Support Station offers a sliding scale to determine service fees for qualified clients based on their financial situation. Our goal is to ensure that cost does not prevent anyone from receiving the support they need on their journey. If you have any questions or need assistance, please feel free to contact us.
