As we ring in the new year with colder days and post-holiday bills piling up, we may begin to feel anxiety and depression. If you’re feeling this way, you are not alone.
Making mental health a new year’s priority can help to improve your overall well-being. Luckily, seeking help doesn’t need to be a burden on your pocketbook or time. From one-on-one counselling to mental health focused workshops, Calgary Foothills Primary Care Network offers a variety of free mental health programs to help you get through difficult times.

“A common misconception about accessing mental health services is the heavy time commitment required by the patient. Our data shows that many patients find value in just one session,” says Daniel Liddle, Calgary Foothills Primary Care Network mental health professional.
