Affordable Therapy

Students across Canada often access off-campus psychotherapy through university or student union health and dental plans, which typically offer partial reimbursement for services provided by Registered Psychotherapists, Psychologists, or Registered Social Workers. However, based on experience working with university students, coverage is often limited and may not fully meet ongoing therapeutic needs, especially alongside financial constraints.

Sliding scale rates are available for students in undergraduate and graduate programs. It is understood that school counselling services can be difficult to access due to waitlists or limited session availability, and that infrequent sessions may make it harder to maintain momentum in therapy. This option is intended to support more consistent and accessible care during the demands of student life.

We are covered by most major Canadian university student health plans, including Studentcare-administered plans at institutions such as U of T, UBC, York University, University of Alberta, McGill University, and more.

Sliding scale rates are available for students across Canada who are in undergraduate or graduate programs. Instead of the full session fee, a reduced rate of$100 per session is offered, typically for up to 15 sessions per year until graduation.

Sliding Scale Therapy

Sliding scale rates are available for individuals and families across Canada who are going through times when finances feel tight, uncertain, or stretched, and when getting support might feel harder to prioritize. This option may be especially helpful for those with no insurance coverage or limited mental health benefits. A reduced rate of $100 per session is offered to help make therapy more accessible when cost becomes a barrier, so support doesn’t have to be delayed or put aside during already stressful periods.

This option is based on current financial circumstances and does not require proof of income. It’s simply meant for people and families who are feeling the weight of financial pressure and would benefit from a lower-fee space to continue care with more consistency and ease.

Sliding scale spots are limited, and they’re offered with the intention of helping as many people as possible who are going through financial strain. Because of this, they’re reviewed from time to time to make sure the space continues to be a good fit for both current needs and availability.
