Affordable Therapy · Newmarket

Quality therapy, made affordable

Cost shouldn't stand between you and support. Start with a free 50-minute session — meet your therapist, talk through what's going on, and see how it feels. No cost, no obligation.

First session free
Then just $80 per session · sliding scale for students with valid ID.

Sessions are supervised by Brendan Callaghan, RP, and receipts are issued under his registration — so many extended health plans will reimburse them. Check with your provider to confirm your coverage.
