The Single Session is an easy access, self-referral service where patients can speak with a social worker or Masters of Social Work Student for a 45-minute, one-time appointment. This may be helpful for a solutions-focused counselling session or to learn about mental health and social service resources in the community or at TC FHT.
In a Single Session appointment, you can expect the social worker to provide more information about the service, confidentiality and privacy. The social worker will then take time to get to know who you are, how you are, and what challenges have led you to book the appointment. They will listen with compassion and explore your goals and hopes for the session. The social worker may offer coping strategies and skills, a new or different perspective, and resources or referrals that are available to you.
The Single Session Clinic runs every Tuesday from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm and every Friday from 9:00 am to noon. You must pre-book by calling 416-260-1315 ext. 0 or by visiting Suite 306 and letting the receptionist know you’d like to book a Single Session.
