Get Started
To help match you with the right therapist that can support you and accommodate your affordable rate, we kindly ask that you book an intake call.
The intake take call takes approximately 5-15 minutes. The intake worker will ask a few basic questions regarding what you’re looking for in therapy, how much you can afford, and at which locations you’re hoping to do therapy.
After the intake call, you will be matched with one of our qualified therapists.
Your therapist will then contact you to book your first session together and start your mental health journey at an
affordable rate!
Affordable Therapy Ontario (ATO) came from a desire to meet the ever-increasing demand for low-cost therapy. ATO is offered by Building Bridges Psychotherapy, an inclusive, diverse, and relationship-focused psychotherapy practice with several locations in southern Ontario.
The goal of ATO is simple: we do not want money to be a barrier to accessing therapy. We wanted to create a simple process to access therapy, where you start by naming how much you can afford for a 1hr session.
ATO also functions as an educational practice. We are a training centre for burgeoning student therapists to gain valuable practical experience and high quality supervision. As such, many of our therapists at ATO are therapist interns completing their practicum. Every single one of our therapist interns have gone through extensive master’s level training and are closely supervised by our team of experienced clinical supervisors.
