  • Our clinicians come from diverse backgrounds and beliefs and are highly skilled in working with clients from different cultural backgrounds. If you have preference for a psychologist who shares a particular language or worldview we will do our best to accomodate this depending on clinician availability. 

    Please select from the questions below if this is applicable to you.

  • Completing the following questions in as much detail as possible will allow us to allocate to the most suitable clinician to support your mental health. 

  • Due to the limited availability of appointments currently, our psychologists recommend getting a head-start on therapy with our Concrete Steps program (video above). Concrete Steps is a 6-module online psychology fundamentals course, developed by our clinical team here at the Centre For Effective Living. The cost of our Concrete Steps program is less than the cost of one session with a psychologist, and can be done either beforehand or alongside therapy. Your intake counsellor will discuss Concrete Steps with you during your intake call.
