We’re open and available for children, youth & families!
“As an organization, Wellkin continues to listen to the feedback from children, youth and families regarding mental health services and needs within our communities. As a result, we have carefully and safely welcomed our staff and clients to our physical locations. In remaining flexible and enhancing service delivery, Wellkin remains open and available to our communities by continuing to provide virtual, telephone, and in-person counselling and face-to-face services by appointment only.
Wellkin Child & Youth Mental Wellness has also increased our capacity in response to the needs of our community by providing greater tele-support, tele-counselling and mobilizing virtual services through PHIPA compliant secure and private platforms.
Our staff are prepared and have engaged in training to continue to provide effective and essential mental health services for children and youth to ensure they receive the care they need virtually. I want to continue to thank our incredible team at Wellkin who continues to go above and beyond in this time of need.”Sincerely,
Kelly Baker
