Remote Counselling – Video and Telephone
Megan Hughes offers remote sessions to clients and occasional in-person sessions once a therapeutic relationship has been established. This is because she works from her home. Telephone or video sessions are full-hour and are the same fee. Megan Hughes uses the Jane platform for video sessions. Please let the Intake Assistant know if you require assistance with the Jane app on your phone or computer. Associates Shannon Sedmak and Sandon Fraser offer remote video sessions.
Pro bono Sessions
At Stillwater Counselling, we also believe there are those in our society who have suffered enough to deserve healing at no charge. Megan Hughes offers a small number of pro bono appointments to:
- street workers actively trying to leave the trade
- survivors of torture
- militarized children
- refugees who have lost family members due to war
- those who have been convicted of a crime, served time in prison, and were later proved to be innocent.
If you think your situation warrants pro bono counselling, please ask. If Megan Hughes is unable to provide it for you, she will be happy to give you referrals.
