Community Counselling
Welcome to CCRC’s Community Counselling program. Our skilled professional therapists will help you explore and understand your issue and assist you to develop solutions. We use a short-term model of therapy, meaning that most issues are resolved in six or fewer sessions.
We provide counselling for individuals, couples, and families and offer our service to seniors at no cost. We also offer counselling groups. We help people facing challenges related to personal well-being, relationships, family issues, parenting, aging, grief and loss, caregiving, separation/divorce, or any form of abuse including elder abuse and domestic violence.
Our core service is providing general counselling services to the community. However, we also offer a number of specialized counselling programs, including:
- Individual, longer-term counselling for women and their children who have experienced domestic violence or abuse
- Individual, family, and group counselling for survivors of sexual abuse and sexual assault, to reduce the effects of trauma
- Groups for women and their children (ages 4 - 16) who have witnessed or experienced violence in the home, so that the impact of the trauma is lessened
- Individual and/or group counselling to provide information and support for caregivers
- Individual, couple and family counselling free of charge to members of our community over the age of 59
Fees are geared to income and no one is turned away due to an inability to pay. Our services are offered in accessible locations, and outreach counselling is available by appointment in Apsley and Havelock.
CCRC’s Counselling Program also hosts the Housing Social Worker program, to assist residents of social housing through social work services, including counselling, actions to retain tenancy, and community development.
