Free 15-minute phone consultation for existing participant/members. This consultation provides an opportunity for the participant to connect, share what feels important right now, and explore whether additional support aligns with their current needs and goals. The conversation is guided by the participant’s priorities, cultural context, and lived experience, with an emphasis on choice, consent, and collaborative decision‑making. The participant is invited to determine what they would like from the session and how support can best honour their strengths and direction.

The initial parent/guardian consult is required before a session with a teen (12+) can be booked. During the assessment, the clinician will meet with the parent(s)/guardian(s) without the child/teen being present. The clinician will ask for information and background history about the child or teen's present challenges, explore teen and family strengths, identify goals for therapy, and provide some brief psycho-education. The assessment can take anywhere from 1 to 3 sessions. Please inform the therapist the prefered modality: in-person, over video, or the telephone.
