Different therapists have different styles. People often need to "try out" different therapists before finding one that fits them. If you're having trouble or are frustrated with the process, we'll help you find the right referral.
Our individual counselling services are designed to help you overcome personal challenges and achieve your goals. Our licensed counsellors provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, gain insights into your behaviour, and develop strategies for positive change.
Our couples counselling services can help you and your partner improve communication, resolve conflicts, and build a stronger relationship. Whether you are facing challenges related to intimacy, trust, or other issues, our experienced therapists can help you work through them and achieve greater satisfaction in your relationship.
Our child and adolescent counselling services are designed to help young people overcome a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, behavioural issues, and more. Our therapists use evidence-based techniques to help children and teens develop coping skills, improve self-esteem, and achieve greater success in school and other areas of life.
Our counselling services can help prepare you to overcome issues related to anger, control, substance use, and trauma triggers. Our licensed therapists use a variety of evidence-based techniques to help you develop coping skills, build a support network, and achieve lasting recovery from negative cycles. We also provide support for family members affected by ongoing negative cycles.
Our grief counselling services with Fay can help you navigate the complexity of pain and grief in a way that honours the one who has been lost, especially disenfranchised grief. Fay provides guidance and support to help you explore your grief, create personal meaning, and move forward. Fay also offers workshops for businesses on grief management in the workplace.
Our art therapy groups with Lara can help you dig deeper into your sense of self, create self-compassion, and process difficult emotions through creativity. Simple, household art supplies are generally sufficient for this group.
Our therapeutic gaming groups with Beth allow adolescents and adults to develop skills in interpersonal relationships, navigate social anxiety, and increase client's confidence in decision-making skills. Groups may be held online or in person.
Our therapeutic writing groups with Beth can help you dig deeper into why you do what you do, develop personal awareness, increase self-compassion, and process difficult emotions through creative expression. You only need a notebook and a pen or pencil!
Meeting through video chat offers numerous advantages, which could explain its sustained popularity among clients. Here are some positive aspects associated with online sessions:
If the process of virtual counselling is too much to manage or cope with, a phone session can be arranged.
How many sessions will it take?
This is like asking the mechanic how long it will take to fix the vehicle before he even knows what's wrong. For simple issues, 1-6 sessions might be sufficient, and for more complex issues, 15-30 sessions might be more appropriate.
Do you direct bill Insurance Providers/ EAPs?
We can direct bill very few Insurance Providers, but most will cover our services. Check with your Insurance Provider for coverage. Most clients pay for counselling upfront, and then submit receipts for reimbursement without any issues.
How much does a session cost?
This is different per clinician, but our fees can range anywhere between $90 to $200 for a one-hour appointment. Payment can be made by debit, credit card, or e-transfer.
Bear Creek Counselling opened in 2009. In 2023, we transferred to new ownership and are continuing our commitment to providing mental health and trauma treatment support to the Peace Country of northern Alberta and British Colombia.
We are a group of professional therapists who are also Christians. All of our staff are competent to provide spiritually-integrated therapy for any faith or spirituality. If you would like Biblical principles or prayer included as part of your treatment plan, please ask your therapist.
