Work With a Student

Working with a student is a fantastic option for counselling support. They are at the top of the mental health game, freshly learning new and time-tested ways to help you move through what’s troubling you.

Another great benefit to working with a student is that the fees are usually considerably lower. They are supervised by a long-time practicing therapist (Leanne in this case) and have multiple avenues for support to providing you with the care you deserve.
