If you’re experiencing feelings of anxiety and interested in receiving professional help, our mental health experts can work with you to provide an individualized approach best suited to your needs.

Can therapy really help?
A good therapist can help you cope with feelings, learn problem solving skills, and change behavior patterns that may contribute to your symptoms. Many people find that working with a therapist over time provides significant relief from chronic emotional issues. It can also provide you with greater clarity and a stronger sense of empowerment.
At HealthOne, we want each of our clients to understand that although therapy results are not immediate, they can have incredibly beneficial and positive impacts on your life over time.
Remember that you can always be completely open with your therapist, and if you feel a certain technique is not working, you can discuss your experience and expectations together.
Why go to therapy?
Mental health counselling can benefit people struggling with emotional difficulties, life challenges, and mental health concerns. The primary goal of therapy is to improve your quality of life and well-being.
There is a common misconception that something must be seriously ‘wrong’ with your mental health in order to benefit from therapy. However, many people find speaking with a mental health professional can help them navigate their lives more successfully.
Mental health concerns are also very common, and many people try to cope with these challenges on their own. However, a safe space to share our experiences, receive support through our everyday struggles and challenges, learn valuable evidence-based techniques, and deepen our sense of self, can be incredibly valuable for living an inspired life.
Our superlative team of professionals are prepared to offer you the support you need to accomplish your goals, develop strategies to enhance the enjoyment of your life, or get over life obstacles. They can help you deal with problems ranging from temporary responses to circumstances (burnout, transitions, break-ups, grief, work-related problems, immigration, etc.) to mood conditions (depression) and anxiety-related problems (anxiety, panic, phobias, ADHD).
What is online therapy?
Online therapy is a form of mental health therapy where you attend sessions via video-chat or telephone. This allows you to access our registered mental health professionals from the comfort of your home, which can replace in-office therapy sessions.
All online therapy sessions at HealthOne are done on a privacy-secured platform that is HIPPA compliant. We encourage you to click here to book a virtual appointment.
Is my therapy session confidential?
Our team believes that confidentiality is a cornerstone of all forms of talk therapy. We understand that knowing you can speak openly and honestly with your therapist helps to build a strong relationship and feel more secure about your experience.
All of HealthOne’s therapists are legally and ethically bound to keep their sessions confidential. Your therapist must get your written consent to release personal health information about you to any other member of your healthcare team, including a consultation about your treatment with your family doctor or psychiatrist.
To protect your safety, the only exception to this rule is if your therapist has a reason to believe you may harm yourself or others. In this case, they must turn to the appropriate resources in order to make sure that you (or others) are safe from harm.
How many sessions do I need?
SHORT TERM THERAPIES • 1 to 6 SESSIONS
Some therapies are short and quick. You can use our services to help manage stress or find a solution to your unique circumstance using short-term focused approaches.
