What is low cost counselling and why do we offer it?
Everyone should have access to mental health care, despite their financial circumstances.
We understand that not everyone has access to benefits or the funds needed for regular therapy sessions. To do our part, The Commons Wellness Collective has decided to host a Masters-level Counselling student who’s completing the practicum hours necessary for graduation.
These sessions will offer high quality counselling at a reduced fee. Part of the process of being registered as a clinical counsellor in BC requires that students work under direct supervision for a period of time. This occurs after they have already completed a significant amount of training and coursework, and it is usually the final step required to meet their program completion requirements.
Our student counsellors are thoughtfully integrated into our team and carefully selected. They receive supervision through their University, as well regular supervision sessions with Nicole, our Clinic Director. Please note that since this is an educational placement, the low-cost sessions will only be available for a limited time with each student counsellor.
