It is hard to put into words just how much this program helped me. The HBR program offered tons of tools and resources, making it easy to apply to everyday life. The ongoing support was essential in my recovery. I am incredibly grateful for the help I received without having to uproot my entire life.

Are Online Therapy Programs Effective?
Absolutely. Research (and real-life stories) show that people using virtual therapy see real improvements in mood, anxiety, sleep, relationships, and overall wellbeing. Often, these changes come about just as quickly as those seeing someone in person. For many Canadians, online care removes so many barriers: distance, stigma, busy schedules, or simply the fear of walking into a clinic.
With HBR, you are not just another number on a waitlist. You get compassionate support from someone who is invested in your progress, no matter where you live or what you are facing.
