Created in 2018 by a former graduate student, the counselling clinic offers a free therapy service that enables individuals to see a counselling therapist graduate student at short notice. The intention of the clinic is to help give people the chance to chat about the things that are most challenging for them, how counselling therapy works (if it’s their first time), and most importantly if they could benefit from further support from our programs. This offers individuals the opportunity to meet with someone, for that counselling student to hold space and safety, for individuals to feel heard, validated, and see whether continuing accessing therapy on a regular basis can be beneficial to them. The Counselling Clinic is also the access point to referrals for the community counselling program. The clinic operates on Wednesdays through telehealth (Telephone, Video, Messenger). |
