Pro Bono Counselling Project
The Pro Bono Counselling Project’s mission is to ensure that vulnerable people with limited resources requesting mental health care are provided access to volunteer mental health professionals. The Pro Bono Counselling Project is not a crisis hotline.
The Pro Bono Counselling Project assists families, couples and individuals. Services are available via teletherapy (video conferencing). They may receive short term therapy of up to two hours of free mental health services.
Therapists from Diana Shanto Therapy will assess and direct clients to the limited free therapy services if necessary.
