COUNSELLING SUPPORT
FOR CLIENTS

What is Counselling Support for Clients?

Counselling Support for Clients (CSC) is a way for clients of Fresh Start Support Services to get financial assistance for counselling services with a registered counsellor or psychotherapist. This may be beneficial to clients who are looking to seek professional help with overcoming past trauma, working through difficulties in their life or who may be looking for a safe space to share their struggles.

How do I use CSC?

Clients are required to select a counsellor from our list provided. Once a client has found the right counsellor for them from the list, it is their responsibility to setup an appointment and submit the attached form to Fresh Start. Once approved, Fresh Start will cover the cost of five sessions per client. However, clients are required to pay $20 per session.
