About

Family and Community Services (FCS) offers walk-in, virtual and telephone counselling.  Residents are invited to phone FCS at 780-464-4044 or visit us on the second floor of the community centre to access affordable solution-oriented counselling (pay what you can afford $0 - $90).

We know life can have its challenges for a variety of reasons, we all need support at times. Many of us have times where we feel uncertain, stressed, overwhelmed and can benefit from connection with a regulated professional. The counselling team is here to support you when you are ready. 

FCS counselling operates as call in or walk in. You will be connected to the next available counsellor.
