Current Wait Times for Services
Below is an overview of our current estimated wait times to help you plan and understand what to expect. Please note that these timelines are approximate and can vary depending on availability and demand.
Clients can request an Initial Consultation appointment, which is typically booked within a few weeks of requesting services. This appointment can help clients define their goals and receive some strategies while they wait for ongoing services. Please note that the Initial Consultation consists of a single appointment only, and it may be with a different clinician than the one the client will work with for ongoing treatment or assessment services.
