Step-by-Step: Booking a Session
- Decide whether you want to choose the counsellor yourself or get a recommendation. If you have a preference — for example, you want couples therapy or grief and loss counselling — you can go straight to matching yourself with a counsellor. If you are not sure, the team offers recommendations based on your situation by email or phone.
- Browse counsellors if you want to compare. Use the Counsellor Directory to filter by areas of focus and therapy style, or click a counsellor's image to open their individual profile. Each profile shows the counsellor's details and schedule.
- Open the booking site or the JaneApp. Both show session options. The JaneApp is the mobile option if you prefer to manage appointments on your phone.
- Pick a time that fits. Steadfast Counselling offers day and evening appointments, 7 days a week, so you can choose a slot outside standard working hours.
- Choose online or in person. Counselling is available both ways, with 4 locations across Greater Vancouver if you prefer to attend in person.
- Confirm your booking. After selecting a session option, complete the booking through the site or app.
Expected result: You will have a confirmed session with a counsellor, at a time and format (online or in person) that works for you.
