About Us
Welcome to Hope Springs Counselling Services. Learn about our mission, values, and the team dedicated to providing affordable, Christian-based counselling in Stettler, Alberta.
Our inspiration and core values
Hope Springs Counselling Services was born from a deep-seated desire to provide accessible mental health support to the Stettler community. Seeing a significant gap in affordable and faith-based counselling options, we were inspired to create a haven of healing and hope rooted in Christian values. We uphold the values of hope, mercy, love, compassion, and humility. These values guide our practice and interactions with every individual we serve.
Affordability and quality of care
At Hope Springs Counselling Services, we are committed to ensuring that our services are accessible to everyone. We offer a sliding scale fee structure based on household income, recognizing that not everyone can afford the standard cost of counselling. Thanks to the generosity of Stettler Community Church, we benefit from low-cost office space, enabling us to minimize operating costs. Our counsellor is deeply motivated by a genuine desire to help people and serve the community, prioritizing the well-being of our clients over financial gain. This commitment allows us to offer lower costs to those in need without compromising the quality and compassion of the care provided.
