At Chettiar Counselling and Associates, we understand the unique challenges that University of Guelph and Conestoga College students face. Our goal is to provide fast access to mental health counselling tailored specifically to their needs. We also recognize that universities and colleges are constrained for mental health counselling resources. That’s why we strive to fill this gap and offer quick access to therapy with no limits on the number of sessions. Our streamlined therapy referral process ensures that students can begin receiving support within one week, enhancing their well-being and academic success.

Our established referral system allows University of Guelph students and Conestoga College students to connect with one of our therapists within one week. We reduce the wait times students often face at their student wellness centers, ensuring they get the mental health support they need promptly.

Reduced Rates for Mental Health Counselling with Interns

We offer affordable student counselling in Guelph, including lower-cost options through our interns. This ensures that students without insurance or those with financial constraints can still receive the support they need.

Student-Focused Care

Our diverse team of skilled therapists offers a wide range of mental health services, including anxiety counselling, depression management, and academic stress support. We recognize that university and college counselling services can only offer a limited number of sessions, whereas, we offer long-term therapy options for students who wish to continue their healing journey.

In-Person, Telehealth and Virtual Therapy Options Students

In addition to in-person sessions, we offer virtual therapy for students across Ontario. This includes online counselling for University of Guelph and Conestoga College students, ensuring they can access care no matter their location or schedule.
