Welcome to ETL’s Affordable Therapy Program
Therapy That’s Warm, Accessible, and Affordable
Because Everyone Deserves Therapy
We believe mental health care should never feel out of reach. At Endless Therapy Lounge, our Affordable Therapy Program offers sessions with compassionate Master’s-level intern therapists, holding a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) status with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). Each student therapist is closely supervised by an experienced clinical supervisor and supported by me, Wafa Naseem, RP & Clinical Director, to ensure you receive safe, high-quality, and client-centred care.
Is This Program Right for You?
Are you a university student navigating stress?
Are you a young professional without extensive benefits?
Are you seeking quality therapy on a budget?
Are you looking for support but find typical rates to be a barrier?
If you answered yes to any of
these, our program is designed
for you.
What is Affordable Therapy?
Affordable therapy gives you the chance to work with caring, skilled therapists-in-training at $80 per virtual session. These Master’s-level intern therapists bring fresh perspectives and modern techniques, while practicing under close supervision to ensure safe, high-quality care.
If cost is still a barrier, we also offer a limited number of sliding-scale spots to keep therapy accessible when it’s needed most.
Why We Offer This Program
We know how intimidating therapy costs can feel, especially when life already feels heavy.
Our Affordable Therapy Program was created to remove that barrier - so you can focus on your growth, healing, and mental well-being without added financial stress.

Your Questions, Answered.
-
Yes - they hold Qualifying status with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO), meaning they are legally allowed to practice psychotherapy under supervision.
-
Sessions are closely supervised by an experienced external clinical supervisor and supported by me, Wafa Naseem, RP. You’ll receive the same confidentiality, care, and compassion - the main difference is the reduced rate while they complete their practicum training.
-
Individual therapy sessions with our student therapists are $80 for 50 minutes. Couples therapy sessions are $100 for 50 minutes.
-
Yes - because student therapists with Qualifying status practice under clinical supervision, most insurance providers treat their services like those of registered professionals. This means coverage is typically eligible. To be safe, you can provide your provider with the therapist’s CRPO registration number and ask:
“Is my plan able to reimburse me for a Qualifying Registered Psychotherapist working under clinical supervision?”
-
Absolutely. Student therapists follow the same ethical and privacy standards as fully registered therapists and maintain confidentiality at all times.
-
Yes, we do! Please let us know during your free consultation with your therapist, or you can email us at info@endlesstherapylounge.ca
