Each PIK participant will receive eight to twelve consecutive weeks of pro-bono or low-cost therapy, depending on need. Participants are assumed to have no access to counselling coverage through their work or education, and to be in a position of financial need.

The number of positions available in this program depends on available clinic funding. At this time, the number of available slots is: 2.

To qualify for PIK, applicants must:

• Not be currently enrolled in a subsidised therapy program or in receipt of counselling benefits through school or work. 

• Complete the application process and detail their needs and goals in therapy. 

• Demonstrate a sincere desire to engage in the counselling process on a consistent basis in support of their needs and goals. 

Applicants will be screened for the PIK program on an ongoing basis. At this time, selection for this program does not preclude the recipient from being selected in the future; applicants are permitted to apply more than once. Please be advised that not all qualified applicants are guaranteed a position in the program. 

Once all documentation has been received, applicants will receive an email confirmation. If selected, applicants will be contacted by the clinic director an additional time through email to advise on next steps. Please note that due to the ongoing review basis, only applicants who are selected to participate will be contacted. If an applicant wishes to receive an update on the status of their application, they are welcome to email the clinic director at info@counterspiralcare.com. .
