Every health authority has differing levels of services that can be accessed, but there are many social workers, counsellors and nurses who work in a community health role.
Where I live (Kelowna, BC) there is walk-in counselling available during certain hours if you need seen quickly and just need short-term support.
Call your local community health building and ask how to apply. Some places have “intake hours”, while others require a referral from your doctor.
Either way, your healthcare number is your ticket for free assistance.
Before getting too enthusiastic at this prospect, most government mental health support have wait-lists or less availability for frequent appointments.
If you feel you need more than they can offer, the next three options are something to consider regarding financial investment in your wellness.
