Peer & Peer+ Groups
Each meeting is one hour long, and is facilitated by a peer, a therapist or a therapist-in-training who have faced a mental wellness challenge themselves. All Peer Facilitators have attended peer groups, and have completed Mental Health First Aid training. Peer+ Facilitators may draw on their psychotherapy training, as well as their own lived experience.

The groups are FREE and CONFIDENTIAL
