BOOK YOUR LOW COST COUNSELLING SESSION
Affordable, low cost counselling services—because your mental health shouldn’t have to wait
At Parallel Wellness, we believe counselling should be available to anyone who needs support. That people deserve a safe place to be vulnerable, explore and get clarity, regardless of their financial situation.
It’s why we’re committed to offering a financially flexible counselling option to help you get to the root of your concerns, build coping skills and resilience and experience less stress.
It’s time to put your mental health first so you can find relief and start thriving
But remember when we said that we’re committed to supporting our neighbours and our community?
We know professional counselling services are expensive—and especially if you don’t have health benefits or have other priorities that require your attention.
This isn't a waitlist you sit on for months on end.
It’s not a free trial period to only be asked to pay full price later.
You will not sacrifice the quality or quantity of your counselling.
*Please note that all online counselling sessions are also subject to our 24-hour cancellation policy. We reserve the right to charge in full for non-emergency cancellations.
If you must cancel an appointment with less than 24 hours notice, please contact your counsellor directly. Our office telephone and email are only checked during Monday to Friday, 9 am to 5 pm business hours. Cancellations not communicated directly to your counsellor will be considered a no-show.
Our low cost counselling follows the same effective, science-backed standard we offer all our clients.
book your session
Starting at $50, you can book a 50-minute session and receive professional counselling from one of our masters-level interns, supervised by Parallel Wellness Founder Meredith MacKenzie.
Maggie is interested in helping clients understand the connection between their emotional wellbeing and what they may be holding in the body. She aims to create a warm, supportive space where clients can slow down, feel safe, and explore their experiences without judgment. Maggie values openness and authenticity, and wants clients to feel accepted, understood, and supported in the therapy room.
Outside of counselling, Maggie has a background in design and brings creativity, warmth, and a grounded presence to her work with clients.
