Frequently Asked Questions

Is burnout the same as depression?

Burnout and depression can share overlapping symptoms, but they are not the same. Counselling can help you better understand what you are experiencing and identify appropriate next steps.

Do I need a diagnosis to start counselling?

No. Many people seek counselling for stress, overwhelm or burnout without having a formal diagnosis.

How long does counselling take?

The length of counselling depends on your goals, circumstances and needs. Some people benefit from short-term support, while others prefer ongoing sessions.

Is counselling covered by insurance?

Many extended health-benefit plans cover psychological or counselling services. Coverage depends on the practitioner’s designation and your individual plan, so we recommend confirming the details directly with your insurer.
