Social Work

Social workers offer various forms of counselling and therapy, working collaboratively with clients to bring about positive change in the client’s thinking, feeling, behaviour and social functioning.


Psychotherapy

Registered Psychotherapists work with people to bring about positive change in their thinking, feeling, behaviour and/or social functioning. Individuals usually seek psychotherapy when they have thoughts, feelings, moods and behaviours that are adversely affecting their day-to-day lives, relationships and the ability to enjoy life.


Psychology

A psychologist is a mental health professional who uses psychological evaluations and talk therapy to help people learn to better cope with life and relationship issues and mental health conditions. Psychologists at the help hub also offer psychoeducational assessments and can diagnose mental health conditions.
