Foundry Ridge Meadows is part of a provincial network of centers providing free, integrated health and social services. Foundry aims to transform health and social services for young people ages 12-24, by offering low-barrier, self-referral access to services. Core services offered at Foundry Centers across the province include mental health and substance use services, primary care services, social and recreation services, and youth and care-giver peer support. Counselling services addresses mental health and substance use concerns and includes individual and/or family counselling.

Walk-in/Call-in counselling services are offered: Tuesday-Wednesday-Thursday: 1-6pm. Please call in and you will likely receive same day service.

Solution Focused Brief Therapy is used for walk-in counselling, and is a single session format. Within a Team approach – you can access as many single sessions as you wish one time per week.  You can request the same counsellor next time and we will do our best to schedule you with that counsellor, but this is not guaranteed.

Short-term counselling (6-12 sessions) is also available once you have attended a walk in counselling session and offered this option, if it fits your need. These sessions are scheduled outside of walk-in hours with the counsellor allocated to you for these sessions. When short-term counselling is completed you can access ongoing walk in counselling sessions as needed.

We are currently offering virtual and phone sessions more often than in person sessions. However, when youth or caregivers call in we will discuss options and preferences.
