House Calls: Vince comes to you
Counselling at your own kitchen table, in the one room where you already feel like yourself. Same session, same fee — travel included within about 40 km.
For a lot of people, the hardest part of counselling is not the conversation. It is the drive into the city, the parking, the waiting room, and the door with someone else's name on it.
Why in-home sessions work
If you live with anxiety — especially social anxiety — your own home is often the one place your body has already decided is safe. Starting there means the first session can be about what you are actually carrying, instead of about getting through the door.
And out here, convenience is not a small thing. An hour of counselling can quietly turn into a three hour trip once you add the highway, the weather and the season. A house call gives you the hour without the rest of it.
It is still counselling. Same Registered Psychotherapist, same 60 minutes, same confidentiality, same evidence-based, faith-integrated approach. Only the room has changed — and it happens to be yours.
Practical details
What to know before you book
Where
Bragg Creek, Cochrane, Springbank, Redwood Meadows, Priddis, Millarville and the foothills in between.
Travel
Included in the session fee for roughly 40 km. Further out, just ask at the free consultation.
How long
A full 60 minute session, booked through Jane the same way an office appointment is.
Confidentiality
Identical to an office session. We plan a quiet spot and a quiet time before the first visit.
Nothing to prepare
You do not need to tidy the house, put on coffee or entertain anyone. Two chairs and an hour of relative quiet is the whole requirement.
Who it suits
House Calls tend to fit
- You would simply rather not leave the house — and that is reason enough.
- Social anxiety makes a waiting room harder than the counselling itself.
- You feel most honest and least guarded in your own space.
- Getting to Calgary means an hour of driving each way you do not have.
- Small kids, livestock or shift work make a fixed office time unrealistic.
- Mobility, illness or recovery makes travel genuinely difficult right now.
House Calls are not right for every situation — some work needs a neutral room, and privacy at home matters. We sort that out together in the free consultation, and the office, the trail and online are all still on the table.
Questions
Common questions
- How far will you travel?
- The first focus is Bragg Creek, Cochrane, Springbank and the foothills. Travel is included in the session fee for roughly 40 km. If you are further out, ask during the free consultation — it can often still be arranged.
- Does a house call cost more?
- No. Within about 40 km the travel is included in the regular session fee, so an in-home session costs the same as one in the Calgary office.
- What do I need to have ready?
- Somewhere reasonably quiet to sit for an hour — a kitchen table, a living room, a porch in good weather. You do not need to tidy up or host anyone. No coffee required, though it is never turned down.
- What about privacy with family in the house?
- We plan for it before the first visit. Most people pick a time when the house is quiet, or a room with a door. Confidentiality is exactly the same as it is in the office.
- I have social anxiety — is this a good place to start?
- Often, yes. Starting in the one room where your body already feels safe removes a real barrier, and for a lot of people that is the difference between beginning counselling and putting it off another year. Later on we can move sessions to the office, the trail or online if you want to.
- Is it still a full counselling session?
- Yes. Same Registered Psychotherapist, same 60 minute session, same evidence-based approach and same confidentiality. Only the room changes.
