Envision Counselling and Support Centre would like to announce that they will be restructuring their counselling services in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
(In the photo above are two Envision staff members, Tania Andrist, resource development coordinator, and Christa Daku, executive director, as they spoke to Weyburn city council in December.)
In an effort to be proactive and accommodate Saskatchewan social distancing protocols, Envision Counselling will be shifting counselling to telephone-based delivery effective immediately for Walk-In Counselling and effective Monday, March 23, 2020 for current clients.
Counselling is an invaluable service especially in times of uncertainty. Envision Counselling is working to find the best way to continue counselling services while also keeping employees and members of the community safe as concern surrounding the COVID-19 crisis increases.
This decision is made in accordance with other Saskatchewan agency initiatives and will take collaboration from partner organizations and the community to share this knowledge as this change takes effect.
As of Wednesday, March 18, Walk-In Counselling will be offered via telephone Monday to Friday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. As of Monday, March 23, current Envision clients will continue counselling services via telephone or video conference.
New individuals seeking counselling can do so by contacting the nearest Envision Office as per usual. If an individual’s safety is at risk, contact 911 or local police or RCMP.
Envision will continue to watch as the COVID-19 pandemic evolves and will update their agency’s response accordingly and ask for patience and grace as they move through this unchartered territory. Any services changes can be found on Envision’s website and Facebook page.
