Contact intake

A real person, on the first call.

Our intake team answers questions about fit, funding, wait times, and next steps — whether or not you’ve decided to refer.

Before you call

What to have ready.

  • Client name and contact details
  • A sentence or two on why you're referring
  • Anything time-sensitive we should know
  • Funding source, if you know it
  • How you'd like to be updated

Missing something? Call anyway. We’d rather start the conversation than wait for a complete file.

Response times

What to expect, and when.

1 business day

Acknowledgement

Confirmation that your referral arrived and who is handling it.

3 business days

Screening call

A clinical conversation with your client to confirm needs and funding.

1–2 weeks

First appointment

Typical wait for therapy. Program start dates depend on the next cohort.

Same week

Expedited review

For time-sensitive referrals — call and tell us it’s urgent.

Emergencies go elsewhere first.

We are not a crisis service. If your client is at immediate risk, direct them to emergency services. We can take over outpatient care once they’re stable.

Where your client will be seen

In-person at our clinics, or securely by video anywhere in Canada — so distance doesn’t decide whether the referral goes ahead.
