Welcome to Ganǫhkwásrâ
Community Counselling and Residential Services provide holistic programs based on Ǫgwehǫ:weh teachings that integrate the mind, body and spirit. The teachings combined with mainstream counselling techniques provide a basis for helping one to accept responsibility for their total being. Abusive behaviours and their generational sources are explored in a caring, non-judgmental way. The commitment to this holistic healing process may be long term, based on the needs of the individual.

- Safe emotional release work
- Art & play therapy techniques
- Traditional teachings
- Massage
