Getting Started
Beginning counselling is a courageous step. Here's everything you need to know to start your journey toward greater well-being.
How to Begin
1. Call or Email to Connect
Call 403.333.5293 and leave a message on the confidential voicemail.
Tania responds personally and promptly to all messages. Speaking together over the telephone allows the opportunity to answer any questions you have and to begin connecting.
You can also email Tania at problemsolved@telus.net.
2. Schedule Your Session
No doctor's referral needed. Self-referrals are welcome.
Most often we can begin our first session within a week of you calling. Daytime, evening, and weekend appointments are available.
Free 15-Minute Consultation
Not sure if counselling is right for you? Start with a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation. This no-pressure conversation gives you a chance to share your concerns, ask questions, and see if we're a good fit—before committing to a full session.
Aurora Counselling provides a safe, affirming space for all individuals, including members of the LGBTQIA2S+ community. Tania is committed to culturally sensitive, inclusive care that respects and celebrates diversity in all its forms.
