Does Rebeca offer sliding scale and/or pro bono counselling?

Rebeca has limited capacity for sliding-scale/low cost counselling, there are a few circumstances on which Rebeca consider these options:

  • Clients accessing counselling through FNHA (First Nations Health Authority) funding. To learn more about these programs and check your eligibility, click here

  • Clients accessing counselling through Crime Victims Assistance Program - CVAP (click here to learn more) I'm CVAP will cover a portion of sessions fees ($80), and I normally request clients to top-up (pay out of pocket) the remainder amount of sessions ($60). I am sometimes able to offer a sliding scale for CVAP clients who are unable to cover the whole remaining balance of my fee.  Feel free to get in touch with me for more details. 

  • Often times, forms of oppression like poverty, racism, colonialism, sexism, ableism, and others can get in the way of allowing people to afford a private therapist. If you are BIPOC and/or LGBTQ2S+ needing support and finances are a barrier, please still reach out. Rebeca can offer free resources, low-cost counselling referrals, and might be able to offer limited number of sliding scale appointments. Please send me an email telling me a little bit about yourself and your goals for counselling, so that I can add you to the low-cost session wait-list.
