Drop-in YEG offers 50 minute-long, single-session counselling services completely free of charge. The service offers individual, couple, and family therapy along with referrals to other services if needed.
Counselling is provided by Intern Therapists who are completing their Masters or PhD in therapy or other counselling related areas. Each Intern Therapist consults a team of therapists during the session to ensure the best possible service is achieved. Drop-in YEG is fully funded by The City of Edmonton - Family and Community Support Services and United Way of the Capital Region so that there is no cost for users.
The therapists at Drop-In YEG can help with:
● Adjusting to Life in Canada
● Parenting
● Alcohol and Drug Use
● Personal or Job Stress
● Anxiety and Depression
● Separation and Divorce
● Relationship Issues
● Sexual Abuse (men and women)

● Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning (LGBTQ)
● Intimate Partner Violence or Domestic Violence
All of the nine locations are in very welcoming community spaces. When you arrive, you can check-in at the reception desk or with the staff attending to the door. The reception staff will tell you when you will be able to see an Intern Therapist, and if that time works for you, the receptionist will ask you to complete a form to help them understand what issue you would like to focus on in your session. As appointments are offered on a first come first serve basis, there may be a wait to see a therapist. Take a book or your phone in case you have to wait! There is no childcare provided while in your session. The counselling session will last 50 minutes.
