Affordable Counselling in Cochrane


At Vital Mind Psychology, we believe that mental health care should be available to everyone. Life can be overwhelming enough without the added stress of wondering whether you can afford support. That’s why we’re committed to offering accessible counselling options for individuals and families in our community.

Affordable Counselling in Cochrane

$60.00 per session with our Counselling Intern

Counselling should feel easy to access.
We believe that getting support shouldn't be out of reach simply because of the cost.

At Vital Mind Psychology, we offer affordable, low cost, counselling for individuals and families who may not be able to access our regular session rates.

Our affordable counselling program provides an opportunity to connect with a caring mental health professional while keeping the cost of counselling more manageable.

Reduced-Rate Counselling
Our reduced-rate counselling appointments ($60.00) provide access to professional support at a lower cost than our regular session rates.

These appointments may be particularly helpful if you don't have extended health benefits, have limited coverage, or are simply finding the cost of regular counselling difficult to manage.

Cochrane Connect Card
We are pleased to offer a further reduced rate for eligible clients who have a Cochrane Connect Card.

If you have a Cochrane Connect Card, please let us know when contacting us so we can explain the further discount.

Who Is This Program For?
Our low cost counselling may be a good fit if:

  • You would like counselling but are finding regular session fees difficult to manage.

  • You don't have extended health benefits or have limited coverage.

  • Your insurance doesn't cover the full cost of counselling.

  • You would benefit from counselling but have been putting it off because of the cost.

No financial details are required when booking with our counselling intern.  Book online as you would with any of our other team members.

What Can I Get Help With?
Affordable counselling is no different to regular counselling services that we offer

Nancy, who is our current intern, can provide support for the following:

anxiety, depression, parenting, caregiver burnout, life transitions, stress and emotional overwhelm, self-esteem, and personal growth and is happy to work with adolescents, teens, adults, and couples

A Lower Fee Doesn't Mean Less Care
We want everyone who comes through our doors to feel welcomed, respected and supported.

Our affordable, low cost, counselling options are part of our commitment to making mental health care more accessible in our community. You can expect the same warm, respectful and person-centred approach that is at the heart of Vital Mind Psychology.

Interested in Affordable Counselling?
Our affordable counselling program includes reduced-rate sessions with our skilled intern counsellor, as well as a sliding scale option based on household income for sessions with other counsellors withing our practice.
