MONTHLY FAMILY PLANS
CCS offers affordable monthly family plans that will allow your family to access regular mental health check-ups with a supervised Masters-level counselling Intern.
These affordable plans are a unique and affordable alternative for families in rural Alberta looking for preventative services.
Often times, we find ourselves booking appointments for our family when things are going wrong, but with Family Plans, your family will receive a monthly phone or zoom call to check in with everyone on the plan in the household!
HEARTMATH BIOFEEDBACK
We are delighted to offer HeartMath Biofeedback services with Certified Clinicians at CCS!
Used by AHS for years, HeartMath biofeedback is helpful for a number of mental and physical health issues.
Biofeedback is a wonderful non-invasive tool that allows you (via sensor clipped to your ear) to see what is happening on the inside of your body, while teaching you interventions to assist with anxiety, pain, depression, stress, insomnia, and several chronic health conditions. Learning is reinforced in an interactive way where you can see in real-time the positive changes happening to your body.

If they are not, you may wish to contact your employer/HR department to have the insurance company add Registered Clinical Counsellors/Counselling Therapists to your plan so that coverage can be obtained in future.
