HOW WE STARTED

The Montreal Therapy Centre was founded in 2003 by 3 passionate classmates who believed that everyone should have access to affordable mental health care. With cutbacks to our public health system, psychotherapy was becoming more difficult to access at the same time that the need for these services was growing. We believed that mental health is the foundation for well-being, solid families and a strong community and so we were committed to build an organization to meet these needs. From our humble beginnings, MTC has grown to include nearly 100 professionals providing therapy in 17 languages.

OUR MISSION

Since day 1 our mission is to offer high-quality psychotherapy services to individuals, couples and families at affordable rates

OUR SLIDING-SCALE

In keeping with our commitment to affordable psychotherapy, we offer sliding scale rates. All of our therapists reserve a certain number of spaces to accommodate those in need.

OUR PARTNERSHIPS
