Canadian Mental Health Association Halton expanding walk-in counselling in Oakville continued from p.26 Angela Gaetano, an information and referral case manager at CMHA-HRB and counsellor during the walk-in service, said currently people can drop in at the Oakville location on Wednesdays from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. and speak with a counsellor for about an hour. She says they're operating at a high capacity to serve the high need in the community. To expand services, CMHA-HRB, which is funded by public funds and private donations, will need more financial support. It asked residents to help support it through its recent second annual Halton Ride Don't Hide community bike ride for mental health awareness held June 26 at the Mohawk Inn and Conference Centre in Milton. The event featured 7 km, 45 km, and 75 km routes as well as food trucks, entertainment, and a family fun zone with face painting and activities for kids of all ages. Wrigley, who has become a CMHA-HRB volunteer over the last year, said although she had to wait to receive service because she wasn't aware of the free walk-in counselling or oneLink at the time she needed help, she's thankful she was connected to other counselling services. She says she's having the best year of her life thanks to help she's received over the last year. "My life has changed dramatically. I'm not depressed anymore, I have an outlet where I can go and speak with someone," Wrigley described. "Whatever the situation is, whatever the issue is I'm dealing with, if I just want to talk, they're there for that and I didn't have that for a really long time." She hopes others who are struggling with their mental health will reach out to CMHA-HRB and get the help similar to the help she received.
