Why Clinical Counselling?

Counselling uses established mental health principles, values, and techniques to help you gain greater insight into existing challenges, develop new skills and capacities, and reveal new opportunities for growth. Our clinical counsellors provide counselling for kids, youth, and adults, and provide counselling treatment online, in-person, or in nature.

Tall Tree’s counsellors work as part of a complete mental health team. They collaborate with our highly-qualified psychologists to ensure you are receiving the best possible care and draw upon our broad range of physical healthcare experts (e.g., physiotherapy, & kinesiologists) to help you reach your goals.

Tell us where you’re at. Let’s set goals together.

What to Expect - Counselling

Initial Visit: 50 minutes
Subsequent visits: 50 minutes

Counselling is available in nature, online, or in-person. At your initial counselling session, you will meet one-on-one with your counsellor to get to know each other and jointly determine if they are a good fit to address your unique needs or if another provider or program is more appropriate. In subsequent sessions, expect to develop insight, learn new skills, improve your mental health, and grow into the person you want to be.
