The program provides individual, couple, and family therapy to teachers and their family members. Counselling Services provides short-term assistance to teachers. Those requiring longer term intervention are, after an initial assessment, assisted by referral to an appropriate community-based professional. Workshops for school staffs are offered, as requested, on issues such as managing workplace stress, balancing home and career, and conflict management. Counselling sessions are made by appointment only.
Appointments are available at a mutually acceptable time and place.
