About Family Services Perth-Huron

The offices of Family Services Perth-Huron are closed Monday June 30th and Tuesday July 1st, 2025 for Canada Day. We will reopen on Wednesday July 2nd, 2025 at 9am.

Family Services Perth-Huron (FSPH) was established in 1971, in Stratford, Ontario, as a private, non-profit, community-based registered charity. Today we provide a wide range of family counselling and developmental support services across Perth, Huron, Grey and Bruce Counties. Our programs are funded by the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services, the Ministry of Health and a variety of community-based funders.

FSPH is dedicated to supporting, strengthening and enriching the lives of individuals, couples and families through individualized counselling, developmental support services and advocacy to meet the needs of the community. We work closely with other services within the community on your behalf to create a plan best suited to your situation. We can also, with your consent, provide information and referrals to other local community services.

Our supports and services are provided in a warm, confidential, accessible setting. Some supports can occur in your home and within the community.

Our Services

Counselling

Family Services Perth-Huron offers private, confidential counselling and social service supports to individuals, couples, families, groups and workplaces. Our counsellors have a diverse experince and extensive training in trauma informed counselling and supports. Counsellors are registered with their regulatory colleges (Social Work or Psychotherapy) and have an educational background in a related discipline. This allows us to match you with an experienced counsellor qualified to suit your needs. We believe counselling is rooted in creating a safe space in a trusting therapeutic relationship.
