Counselling

Yellowhead Community Services provides counselling through a variety of government contracts that address specific areas, as listed below.

• Adult Mental Health
• Ashcroft Family Counselling Services
• Program for Children and Youth Experiencing Violence (PEACE)
• Stopping the Violence
• Substance Abuse
• Community Counselling

Services are free and no referral is necessary. We will respond to your call by setting up an initial assessment of your needs with one of our counsellors. Referrals can be made to other agencies if we are unable to assist you.

Due to Covid-19 and with additional funding received from The Community Action Initiative, we are able to provide flexible counselling options to meet the needs in the community, especially for those who are most vulnerable due to health concerns or are experiencing transportation challenges. While in-person services are available, we are also able to offer individual and group virtual services through an approved telehealth platform and telephone counselling. If access to a phone, long distance plan/internet or technology is a barrier to receiving services, please contact us, our information is below. 

For more information for clients or you would like to refer someone to one of our counselling programs, please download the Client Handbook.
