About Our Service

Family Service Saskatchewan’s Rapid Access Counselling Program is delivered through a partnership of member agencies in communities across Saskatchewan. This service is funded by the Saskatchewan Health Authority.


We offer quick access to brief mental health services for individuals, couples and families. We can help with concerns such as anxiety, depression, addictions, suicidal ideation, stress, relationship conflict, separation and divorce, domestic violence and parenting. Our services are prioritized for individuals who do not have access to workplace benefits, who live on a fixed or low income, and who would otherwise most often experience long waits for publicly funded services.  


Services are provided by professional counsellors who hold education in the counselling and mental health field and who are licensed with a professional regulatory body to provide this service.
