Provides single session counselling, screening and referral on a walk-in basis for people experiencing a range of emotional or mental health issues.

Provides a short-term counselling service, to help people make changes in their lives. Screening and referrals may also be completed to connect clients with additional services.

  • stress
  • grieving
  • parenting
  • relationships
  • depression
  • anxiety

Confidential counselling sessions are 50 minutes.

If appropriate, people are provided information on other addiction and/or mental health services.
