Affordable Therapy

We’re passionate about bridging the gap in mental health care accessibility. Therapy should be inclusive and affordable for all, and we’re commited to offering cost-effective alternatives.

Our program caters to individuals with inadequate mental health coverage or those unable to afford traditional therapy rates ranging from $100 to $180 per session. Sessions are offered virtually by master’s level counselling students.

We have availability for next-day appointments, on a sliding scale model of $30-70 per session.

It is important to consider that while our student therapists provide valuable support, individuals with active psychosis, addiction, or eating disorders may require specialized care beyond our scope. Feel free to contact us for guidance on suitability.
