About this service
The Counselling Program provides individual and group counselling support to prenatal and parenting persons under the age of 25 years. When working with youth who have substance abuse issues, including concurrent disorders, we adopt a harm reduction approach. The Counsellor uses various research-based, evidence-informed assessment tools when helping young people we support move through the process of change. Aligned with our trauma-informed approach to service our Counselor is trained to conduct trauma specific work and use a variety of treatment approaches. The Counsellor utilizes screening and assessment tools including; the GAIN SS (Global Appraisal of Individual Needs Short Screener), the ACE (Adverse Childhood Effects) Questionnaire, the RESILIENCE Questionnaire, and the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) and to identify an individuals experience, needs, as well as any mental health concerns to assist in providing a focus for one-on-one counselling. For intensive treatment, a referral is made to a partner agency. The Counsellor provides support in both Waterloo and Cambridge locations. Our one-to-one counselling program helps pregnant and parenting youth make positive decisions for themselves, their pregnancy and their child.
