We understand that coming to the Parallel Wellness office for every session might be challenging.
Your errands are taking you all around town and the thought of driving any farther sounds dreadful—we get it.
You’re busy taking care of your family—but still need to make time for your mental health.
Your physical ability might make travel hard. We don’t want to make accessing therapy more difficult for you.
Or you’ve found your perfect-match therapist, but you don’t live in the same place!
Accessing mental health services should be easy.
It’s why we offer virtual online counselling services through the secure Jane video app—available in your client portal.
Alleah offers virtual sessions for individual therapy, as well as art therapy.
All so she can connect with clients who reside outside our community, need flexibility within their schedule, or experience physical challenges to traveling to our office
CONNECT WITH A COUNSELLOR
Our virtual counselling services are held to the same standards and follow the same processes as our in-person counselling services.
The only difference?
You experience your session from the comfort of your home, your car, or wherever is convenient for you.
There’s no extra cost or shortened session requirements.
We take your privacy seriously. Our virtual counselling sessions are private, safe and secure.
Alleah has been with Parallel Wellness since 2023. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Saskatchewan and a Master’s of Counselling Psychology: Art Therapy degree from Adler University.
Alleah specializes in Art Therapy that uses art to facilitate communication, insight, and self expression. Having prior art experience is not necessary because the focus in session is on the process of creating art and exploring what comes up, rather than on the final art product.
Other modalities called upon during sessions include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, a branch of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, that uses mindfulness to help support clients in living a meaningful life in line with their values.
Alleah works with adults and can support clients in the following areas:
