How to get started

Counselling Services for Waterloo Region

 
 

I'd like to start counselling. Now what?

Excellent Question! You can contact me by phone or email, or you can submit an online submission form. All of these options can be found on the contact page. 

Once you have reached out, I ask for the following information:

  • Would you like to book a full 50-minute appointment or a free 20-minute consultation?

  • If you're comfortable, you can share know what concerns you would like to address in therapy.

  • Your availability, so I can suggest some times to meet.

  • Completed intake forms.

It might also be helpful to look into your benefits to see if your sessions could be partially covered. Post-secondary students often have additional coverage through their schools and most benefit packages will cover counselling sessions by Registered Social Workers (RSW).
