Referral Pathways

Child Referral

We know that reaching out for counseling can be a big step, so we've made the process as simple as possible. This pathway is for individuals under 18 years old.

How to Begin
To get started, simply call or email us. We'll ask you to fill out a screening form to determine the best path for your family. If you're setting this up for a child or teen, it's helpful to include them in the process to build trust.

The First Session
After we've found the right path for you, a counsellor will contact you to schedule your first session. This initial meeting is a great chance for you or your child to see what it's like to work with the counsellor and get comfortable.

We offer both short- and long-term counselling, with 9–12 sessions often being effective. Our counsellors use a variety of techniques, including talking, creative work, and play, to help young people explore difficult feelings and develop new ways of coping in a supportive and trusting environment.

Payment

We offer a sliding scale payment system where the cost for our service is determined by what your household can afford. This is based on a "pay-what-you-can" principle, ensuring our services are available to everyone, regardless of their financial situation.

"Anything that's human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary."
