Affordable Therapy
Low-Cost Online Therapy across Ontario
Are you looking for therapy that is affordable and effective?
We believe everyone deserves access to quality mental health care. Our Affordable Therapy Program offers professional counselling at a reduced rate of $90 per session, provided by doctoral-level intern therapists under the supervision of a registered psychologist.
Whether you’re managing anxiety, depression, life transitions, or relationship challenges, this program connects you with compassionate, evidence-based support at a lower cost.
Who are intern therapists?
Intern therapists are advanced students completing the final clinical practicum of their Doctoral training in Clinical Psychology. They have completed the educational background and extensive clinical training required to provide high-quality therapy services.
At our clinic, intern therapists receive additional training in trauma-informed and culturally responsive care, reflecting our focus on psychological treatment at the intersection of trauma and culture.
Each intern therapist works under the direct supervision of psychologist Dr. Nicola Hermanto, who meets with them weekly to review cases, ensure ethical practice, and maintain the highest standard of care.
What are the benefits of working with an intern therapist?
Lower Cost – Access quality therapy at a significantly reduced rate.
Collaborative Care – Benefit from the expertise of both your intern therapist and their supervising psychologist.
No Waitlist – Begin therapy right away.
Fresh Perspectives – Intern therapists bring energy, empathy, and the latest evidence-based approaches.
Flexibility & convenience – Morning, daytime, and evening sessions are available and offered online.
