Our Counselling Services
The team at Crossroads Collective in Kelowna offers a diverse range of Counselling services and support in BC. Services and support include in person or online ways of connecting with a counsellor that is a good fit for you. Our team is here to connect with you via phone call or through our website so that we can support you and your mental wellness.
IT’S THE RIGHT TIME TO TALK ABOUT IT
Our Crossroads Collective team of clinical counsellors are specialized in a range of mental health and wellness services. This gives us the ability to provide both in-person counselling services in our space in KELOWNA as well as the opportunity to have online/virtual counselling sessions with clients. A counsellor at Crossroads Collective offers a space for clients to open-up and work through the different parts of their life and experiences.
YOU HAVE THE CHOICE
Deciding what counsellor is the right fit for you is an important decision and this should not have to be determined by location and accessibility. Through the services at Crossroads Collective, clients can choose for a wide selection of counsellors that work both online and in person. We recognize the individuality of each client and understand the importance of finding the right fit for you when you are choosing a counsellor. Our counsellors each have their own different experiences and expertise. We welcome the opportunity to share more information with you about our services and connect you to a counsellor that aligns with your needs.
HIGH CONFLICT
The Crossroads Collective High Conflict Team is specialized in working with divorced/separated families that are or have been involved in the court system. The emotional drain and stress that the process of a separation or divorce can put on families is substantial and when this also involves court proceedings this can be an added stress to each person. Often the stresses of a divorce or separation that have court involved can feel overwhelming and unmanageable. As a professional and supportive team at Crossroads Collective the High Conflict Team has training and specialized knowledge to best support families through this transition. Our dedicated team are here to support each family through this difficult time through Counselling services and informed discussions.
