What is reduced-fee therapy?
Reduced-fee therapy is provided by Masters Level therapist interns completing their final clinical placements as part of accredited graduate Masters programs such as the University of Toronto. Each intern undergoes a rigorous selection process and comes with previous experience, a strong knowledge base and is exceptional amongst their peers.
Therapist Interns receive extensive psychotherapy training and additional onboarding in trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and culturally sensitive care before beginning sessions.
All therapy is supervised weekly by the founder and clinic owner to ensure a high standard of care, ethical practice, and ongoing learning.
