Bay Counselling Service was established in August 1989. It was founded by Dr. Sarah Calvert (1989-2003), Keith Crosby (1989-2017), Nancy Morrow-Hogg (1989 – 2019), Diane Gittos (1989-1995) & Gillian Moir (1989-2009).
Initially it was hard to find a building as no Real Estate agent would believe that private “counselling” could be a viable business.
With some persistence they managed to secure 68 Tenth Ave, where we have been ever since. It has become the base of operations for 30 psychologists, psychotherapists, and counsellors over that time.
Much of the early work was done through government funded programs, running workshops and groups, but as the public is seeing more and more the benefits of “talk therapy”, we are seeing more and more private clients.
In 1997 Bay Counselling Service became Bay Counselling & Therapy Service.
