About Georgia Strait Womens Clinic
After 15 years of helping men with mental health and addiction treatment, Georgia Strait Women's Clinic knows there is a large need for specialized services for women with mental health and addiction issues. Even though the issues are the "same", how each gender deals with them is dramatically different, meaning the treatments and therapies need to be as well. Georgia Strait Women's Clinic believes that every client (man, woman, or non-binary) deserves to have a highly skilled, compassionate, and curious team of professionals to help them. In their unique set up, they are able to offer the services of a large facility along with privacy and attention that you can only find in a smaller one.

Testimonial
The staff were kind, non-judgmental, and did everything they could to make my stay comfortable. Everything was well taken care of, from the accomidations, to the food, to the treatment itself. The team at Georgia Straight helped me to find my best self and move forward with my life.

I really liked the family environment and the personal care and love that went into the care. I really liked that the therapists worked collaboratively and could help you approach your issues from several different perspectives. The sense of community between the women was also huge for me. I felt that things that could be worked on were having consistency in the message of autonomy to the clients. For example when I had a noise complaint in my room since it was below the nurses station, it took several days to get me moved even though there was a vacancy at the time I asked. I felt a bit evaded and invalidated during the request which did exacerbate anxiety a bit. But in the end I was heard and it was resolved. I also felt that one nurse in particular was fairly disrespectful in many of her interactions not only with myself but with some of the other clients which was fairly triggering and disempowering. Also I felt that consistency of the "main therapist" who also conducted small group would have been more effective since there was a transition happening at the time I was there. But overall my experience was amazing and I feel like my treatment was successful. My anxiety is significantly reduced and my toolbox is full to navigate the challenges that will inevitably occur.

Very positive experience. Professional care givers, a variety of therapists and cutting edge techniques, small group of max 9 women, allows for personalized care. Really appreciated having my own suite to retire to after programming. Focus is on purpose and meaning rather than 12 step which was a better fit for me. I have been to two other treatment centres before and they to not compare to GSWC. An all women’s program allowed for a safe environment for group work and other activities.

When I arrived, I was a shell of myself. I was broken and in need of repair and recovery from traumas and substance abuse. The focus was on compassionate support, non-judgment, self-love and care and connection with self and others during the process and beyond. I am so grateful to be walking out whole and strong. I am so grateful for the people I have met and the willingness of the group to be vulnerable and accepting with the utmost respect. Coming here has changed my life and the ripple effect will be forever as I am a better mom and person for having been here. Thank you to all of you.
