Men’s Services
Are you interested in living your best life? With tools designed especially for men, our Fresh Take program offers a host of services to help you achieve your goals.
About Men’s Services
There are many important roles we take on in building the lives we want. Every one of those relationships is tricky to manage. Every day we show up as parents, partners, children, friends, employees, and as individuals. However, we don’t always show up as the best version of ourselves.
Fresh Take programs provide strategies and tools to adopt a new perspective, new approaches, and to support men’s wellbeing.
Who We Help
Programs are available to men living and working in Simcoe County and the District of Muskoka. In the spirit of hope and compassion, CFS and its collaborative community partners are dedicated to providing professional counselling, education, and advocacy to heal and strengthen family and individual life.
Recognizing the importance of family context, we strive to be inclusive of persons of all abilities, religion, cultures, sexual orientation and gender identities.

Client Rights & Responsibilities
At CFS Counselling + Wellbeing, we foster a culture of mutual respect and inclusivity, where everyone feels safe and valued. We do not tolerate discriminatory or aggressive behaviors and expect all clients, staff, volunteers, and partners to contribute to this positive environment. I understand that a failure to uphold this culture of respect may result in termination of services.
