No Waitlist Therapy in Calgary β Get the Support You Deserve Within Days
Jun 18, 2025
At Shelly Qualtieri & Associates, we believe that when someone is ready to reach out for help, they shouldn’t have to wait weeks—or even months—to receive it. That’s why we proudly offer therapy with no waitlist in Calgary, along with virtual counselling across Alberta.
If you're looking for real support, real tools, and real change, you're in the right place.
Why No-Wait Therapy Matters
Mental health struggles don’t follow a schedule.
Whether you're a parent concerned about your child, a teen overwhelmed by anxiety, or an adult facing burnout, the moment you decide to seek support is often the moment you need it most. Unfortunately, long waitlists can make people feel discouraged—or worse, give up entirely.
At Shelly Qualtieri & Associates, we’ve removed that barrier. You can speak to a therapist within 1 to 7 days, often sooner. We also offer free 30-minute consultation calls to help you find the right fit before you commit to a session.
We offer in-person counselling in Calgary (Monday–Saturday) and virtual therapy across Alberta—so support is never out of reach.
Therapy Tailored to All Ages — Because Everyone Deserves Support
Every stage of life brings unique challenges. That’s why we offer age-appropriate, tailored counselling services for:
We use play-based, trauma-informed approaches that help children:
- Understand and manage big emotions
- Build emotional regulation skills
- Process grief or loss
- Navigate behavioural struggles
We also work collaboratively with caregivers, so the skills your child learns in session extend into everyday life.
Teens and Adolescents
Adolescence is filled with stress, change, and identity exploration. Our therapists provide a supportive space for:
- Self-esteem and confidence building
- Coping with anxiety, sadness, or school pressure
- Navigating friendships, relationships, and family dynamics
- Exploring gender, sexuality, and identity with affirmation and compassion
Adults
We work with adults navigating:
- Anxiety, depression, or trauma
- Burnout and stress management
- Career and life transitions
- Grief and relationship challenges
Our approach combines bite-sized strategies for emotional resilience with deep, meaningful therapeutic work that’s paced to your needs.
Families and Couples
Family relationships can be our greatest support—or our biggest source of pain. We help families and couples:
- Rebuild connection and trust
- Improve communication
- Resolve longstanding conflicts
- Navigate transitions like divorce, blended families, or parenting stress
Virtual Counselling Across Alberta
No matter where you live—urban or rural—you deserve access to qualified mental health professionals.
Our virtual therapy services are available across Alberta, making support accessible from the comfort of your home. All you need is a device and a safe space.
