At Your Story Counselling, we believe that everyone deserves access to high-quality, compassionate mental health care—regardless of their financial situation. Over the years, one of the most common challenges we’ve heard from individuals and families is the difficulty of finding therapy that is both affordable and accessible.

That’s why we are proud to introduce our sister initiative: Affordable Therapy York Region.


This platform was created to make it easier for people in Vaughan, Markham, Richmond Hill, Newmarket, Aurora, and across York Region to connect with therapists offering low-cost therapy options, without sacrificing quality or care.


Why Affordable Therapy Matters

Therapy is an investment in your mental health, relationships, and overall well-being. But the reality is, the cost of therapy can often feel out of reach—especially for those without comprehensive insurance coverage.


With sessions starting at $30, Affordable Therapy York Region bridges this gap by:

  • Offering low-cost counselling sessions with supervised student therapists and new clinicians

  • Providing a safe space for those who are new to therapy and want to explore support without financial strain

  • Expanding access to mental health care for individuals, couples, and families in our local community

This initiative is about breaking down barriers, so no one feels like therapy isn’t an option because of cost.
