Your First Session

During a consultation appointment, your Access Advisor will:

The goal is to provide you with guidance, information, and access.听Documentation is only provided at follow-up appointments with a clinician (not an initial consultation).
Your Access Advisor听can't refer you directly to a psychiatrist.听They听can connect you to a doctor听if a referral to a psychiatrist is necessary.
Not sure where to start? Access Advisors run a weekly workshop to help you understand your wellness needs and learn about the resources available to you.

What鈥檚 the difference between meeting with an Access Advisor, Local Wellness Advisor, and Counsellor?
Access Advisors, Local Wellness Advisors, and Counsellors are all licensed professionals with training in the mental health field.听听
Access Advisors are a great first step if you aren鈥檛 connected already to a professional at the Hub. Access Advisors typically only meet with students for a one-time appointment to offer guidance/counselling and development of a wellness plan suited to their needs.听
Local Wellness Advisors (LWAs) offer faculty- or community-specific support and are embedded within faculties and areas within 缅北强奸. LWAs have deeper knowledge about the needs of a specific faculty (eg, engineering), area (eg, Macdonald campus), or community (eg, 2S&LGTBQ+ identifying students, Black or BIPOC identifying students). LWAs offer one-on-one support and facilitate wellness programming like workshops that are tailored to their faculty or community. You can learn more about LWAs here: /wellness-hub/about-hub/clinicians/local-wellness-a...听
Counsellors are located within the Student Wellness Hub with the majority being trained psychotherapists. Counsellors meet with students one-on-one to develop a wellness plan suited to their needs. The plan could include one-on-one sessions, group therapy, peer support, a referral to another professional, or another type of support. If you鈥檝e already connected with a Counsellor at the Hub, it is recommended to follow up with your Counsellor for continuity of care.听
