Restored Roots Counselling offers compassionate, evidence-informed support shaped around your history, strengths, needs and goals. Sessions are available from Lethbridge and virtually for eligible clients in the Canadian regions served by the practice.
Trauma-informed counselling begins with safety and understanding rather than pressure. Work may include emotional regulation, shame, survival responses, boundaries, agency and the patterns that developed around difficult experiences.
Addiction counselling is offered without moralizing or reducing a person to a behaviour. The work can explore what the pattern does for you, what maintains it and what supports realistic, sustainable recovery.
Relationship counselling can help people understand recurring patterns, communicate more clearly and respond to conflict with greater awareness. Individual relationship work and joint sessions may be considered according to fit and circumstances.
Christian faith can be included when it is meaningful to you. Faith integration is collaborative and never imposed; questions, doubt, grief, spiritual injury, meaning and hope can all be explored with respect.
Counselling can support people who feel stuck in worry, self-criticism, emotional exhaustion or uncertainty. The goal is not to force a quick answer, but to understand what is happening and develop a workable way forward.
Restored Roots also develops educational resources that extend reflection and skill-building beyond appointments. These include communication practice, workbooks, videos, music and free materials.
Candy Salik is a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA) and a Registered Counselling Therapist with the Association of Counselling Therapy of Alberta (ACTA). Many extended-health benefit plans may reimburse counselling provided by CCCs or ACTA-registered Counselling Therapists.
Coverage is determined by the client’s individual policy rather than by the insurance company alone. Some plans cover counselling or psychotherapy, while others restrict coverage to psychologists or registered social workers.
Before beginning counselling, clients should contact their insurer and ask:
“Does my specific plan cover counselling or psychotherapy provided by a Canadian Certified Counsellor with the CCPA who is also a Registered Counselling Therapist with ACTA?”
Receipts containing the counsellor’s credentials and registration information are provided for insurance submission. Direct billing is not currently available.
Restored Roots Counselling is based in Lethbridge, Alberta. Virtual availability depends on the client location, clinical suitability, technology, insurance and applicable professional requirements.
