Registered Programming
Short Term Individual Counselling
Waitlist is open. Participants will meet with the same clinician for 6 consecutive sessions that take place every 1 to 2 weeks. Sessions are 50 minutes long.
The short term individual counselling approach at Stella’s Place is integrative, drawing primarily from Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (FACT). FACT is a brief version of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and is an effective treatment for many mental health challenges. In a FACT approach, participants are viewed as “stuck, not broken” and treatment targets one primary issue, which is collaboratively selected by participant and clinician. Clinicians introduce experiential interventions during sessions to increase participant awareness, skillfulness, and encourage application beyond sessions. FACT supports individuals in taking values-based actions while coping flexibly and effectively with difficult challenges, thoughts, memories, and emotions.
DBT Skills
Waitlist for future groups is open.
Learn to apply Dialectical Behavioural Therapy Skills to your life. You will learn how to identify and cope with your emotions, how to manage difficult situations, and how to build communication skills with family and friends.
BIPOC DBT Group
Waitlist for future groups is open.
For BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Colour) folks. Learn to apply Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) skills to your life. You will learn how to identify and cope with your emotions, how to manage difficult situations, and how to build communication skills with family and friends.

“Stella’s Place means community. It’s not the place that makes it so wonderful, it’s the group of people in it that makes it such a safe haven.”
-Stella’s Place Community Member
“Before coming to Stella’s Place, I guess I was lost, and felt a bit lonely. I felt like a crisis was about to happen and I needed to take some preventive action. I was able to choose several options in one place: the job connection program, figure out my financial situation, participate in WRAP with a peer supporter, and one-on-one counselling.”
–Victoria, Participant
