Affordability
This shouldn't be something that you have to consider when you need support for mental health challenges. But it is. Our Low-Fee Therapy program has provided affordable therapy locally and virtually for 6 years. We'll continue to help people in this way as long as we're able.
Realistic Cost
Low-Fee sessions are $45/hour (plus GST). A typical therapy treatment plan is 6 sessions long. That means you can spend less than $300 (tax included) to literally change your life. Trust me, a lot can change in 6 weeks! You just have to start.
Counselling Interns
The program is made possible by our Interns. Every intern we take on has completed their education, and is working on getting their hours to be a fully registered professionals. They have life experience and are supervised by a fully qualified Clinical Supervisor, in our clinic.
