Thrive Counselling

Tannis there is great! Worth every penny.

I was skeptical about what more I could learn from therapy, and I’m usually quite stubborn, but the tools my therapist, Sandra, taught me seriously helped me reframe a lot of things that were poisoning my mood. The connections she made between my current behaviour and my past experiences has had a profound effect on my life. I feel like I have the tools to tackle my struggles. My old therapists cost ~$120-$150 per hour but Sandra was only $95 (and she’s the priciest of all the therapists there). I think therapy should be accessible and making it financially feasible is a huge plus. The reason I stopped therapy a while back was simply cause I could afford it, but that’s no longer the case.

Do not recommend at all. I called and left messages 4 times in addition to 2 emails over the course of 4 weeks and nobody ever contacted me back. After someone finally answered the phone and I was able to book an appointment, I showed up to the appointment and couldn’t get into the building. I received 3 reminder emails so I know that I arrived at the correct place on the date and time specified. I phoned the number indicated on the door to be let in 5 times and nobody answered. After waiting outside for 25 minutes I left. I don’t understand how this business keeps going with this kind of treatment of their clients.

Awesome online setup for appointments and have appreciated Joe's assistance.

Doesn't even deserve a star. They hung up on me before even taking my call Thanks alot

For what it's worth, I am confident that Thrive would have a lot more reviews if there wasn't such a stigma in seeking help for relational and mental health. There is something very vulnerable in saying, I saw these professionals because I needed help - and they helped me!" So here I am

Honestly have struggled with just contacting the place. They guarantee a 24 hour response time 7 days a week for inquiries, it took three days to get a copy and pasted response to the initial request and haven’t heard back on the second request and the therapist that I wanted to book with doesn’t use the online system. Don’t bother calling or emailing them

Oof. Voicemail box full. NOT a good look at all, especially since I called on a Thursday at noon.

Met with therapist Maria and although I believe she’s a nice person and has good intentions her approach did more harm than good, at least for me. I just wanted to talk things through but instead I felt pushed to take her advice. At the end, I left feeling very low and hopeless. But I guess what didn’t work for me could work for someone else.One more thing, initially I wanted to see a therapist that uses CBT in their work, but it’s impossible to book an appointment with certain therapist. Not sure why they are even on the list if they have no availability at all. Sad.
