At WJW Counselling & Mediation, we offer professional, compassionate counselling services designed to support emotional wellbeing, personal growth, and meaningful change. We provide in-person counselling in St. Albert, Edmonton, and Peace River, as well as secure virtual counselling across Alberta.
Our counselling team includes registered psychologists, provisional psychologists, and trained mental-health therapists who work collaboratively with clients to address life challenges, emotional distress, relationship concerns, and mental-health difficulties — at a pace that feels safe, respectful, and empowering.
Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or simply seeking greater clarity and balance, counselling can help you move forward with confidence and support.
