What Is Counselling
Counselling is a collaborative, confidential process that helps you better understand your thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and patterns so you can create meaningful change in your life. At our Red Deer clinic, our counsellors use evidence-based approaches to support clients dealing with a wide range of concerns — from everyday stress and anxiety to more complex emotional and relational challenges.
We focus on empowering you with insight, practical tools, and strategies that improve daily functioning, relationships, and overall quality of life. Sessions are centered on your goals and paced according to what feels right for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about counselling at Reform Health + Wellness
No referral is required to book counselling at Reform Health + Wellness. You can self-refer. Some extended health benefit plans may require a physician’s referral for reimbursement — we recommend checking with your insurance provider.
Counselling is not covered under the standard Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan. Most clients access care through private extended health benefit plans (Alberta Blue Cross, Sun Life, Manulife, etc.). We offer direct billing to most major insurers where available. We also accept private pay. Please contact us or your benefits provider to confirm your coverage.
The number of sessions varies depending on your goals, the nature of your concerns, and how you respond to support. Some people benefit from short-term, focused work, while others prefer a longer course of therapy or ongoing maintenance sessions. Your counsellor will provide clear recommendations after the initial assessment and regularly re-evaluate progress with you.
Yes. What you share in counselling is confidential, with the standard legal and ethical limits that apply to all regulated mental health professionals in Alberta (for example, situations involving imminent risk of serious harm or legal requirements to report). Your counsellor will review confidentiality with you at the beginning of care.
Our team draws on evidence-based approaches tailored to your needs and preferences. These may include cognitive-behavioural strategies, mindfulness-based techniques, emotion-focused work, and other modalities shown to support lasting change. Your counsellor will discuss the approach with you so you understand how the work will unfold.
