“I wish I’d known about this platform sooner! I loved the introductory videos–this is what helped me choose the therapist to book an intro consultation with.”

First Session Client, 2025

Helping Every Therapy Seeker Find the Right Fit

Compatibility is the most important factor when choosing a therapist. But finding the right fit isn’t easy. First Session takes the time, guesswork, and emotional labour out of that process.

  • Search a curated therapist network

    Narrow your search to a list of rigorously vetted therapists you’ll actually consider booking. Because finding a therapist shouldn’t involve reading endless generic bios.

  • Assess for fit before you commit

    Decide if a therapist is the right fit for you before booking with interview videos and in-depth bios. No more switching or re-telling your private feelings and story

  • Book directly (and instantly)

    Schedule an available session or free consultation right from the First Session platform. No 3rd party intake calls or back and forth emailing required.

Free yourself from the stress of endless searching and switching

Convenience-first approach to finding a therapist

  • Burnout from endless search results and unhelpful therapist profiles.
  • Disappointment and frustration from generic intake calls and unproductive ‘free’ consultations.
  • Emotional stress from repeatedly revealing private thoughts and feelings to incompatible therapists
  • Stalled mental health progress because of limited availability, timezone differences, or constantly switching providers
  • Risk of abandoning therapy process altogether because of frustration, exhaustion, or depression

Connection-first approach to finding a therapist with First Session

  • Instantly create a short-list of therapists qualified to support your journey
  • Get to know a therapist’s personality, approach, and experience before booking
  • Share your private history, thoughts, and feelings only if there’s a connection
  • Save time and minimize stress by finding the right fit without endless switching
  • Make meaningful progress sooner and commit to lasting, meaningful change

Frequently Asked Questions

Does insurance cover therapy in Kawartha Lakes?

Many extended health plans cover therapy provided by RPs, RSWs, and psychologists, but coverage depends on your specific plan. Check which designations your plan covers, along with your annual maximum, reimbursement percentage, and any per-session limits.

Is online therapy as effective as in-person therapy?

Online therapy can be an effective option for many common concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship difficulties. For many forms of talk therapy, the core work is similar whether you meet by video or in person. 

However, the best format depends on your circumstances and the type of therapy you're receiving. If you're unsure whether online therapy is appropriate for your needs, you can ask the therapist during your consultation.

What's the difference between RP and RP (Qualifying) in Ontario?

Both Registered Psychotherapist (RP) and Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) are regulated professionals under the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO).

RP (Qualifying) therapists have completed the education and registration requirements to practise, but they're still completing the supervised clinical experience required for full RP registration. They practise under clinical supervision during this period.

Does living outside Lindsay limit my options?

Not when you're looking for online therapy. First Session currently offers online therapy to clients across Kawartha Lakes, so you don't need to live in Lindsay to access the therapists listed on the platform.

Whether you're in Bobcaygeon, Fenelon Falls, Omemee, or another community in Kawartha Lakes, you can search the same online therapist pool by concerns, preferred approach, language, and other preferences.

Can I see a therapist who isn't based in Ontario?

Potentially. Some therapists based elsewhere in Canada can provide online therapy to clients in Ontario. If you're considering a therapist based outside Ontario, check their profile and confirm they can provide services to you in Ontario before booking.

How do I choose an online therapist in Kawartha Lakes?

Start with the factors that matter most to you: the concerns you want to address, the therapist's areas of experience, therapeutic approach, professional designation, fee, language, and availability.

First Session profiles include this information along with a short introductory video. You can also book a free 15-minute consultation directly from the therapist's profile to ask questions and decide whether they feel like a good fit before committing to a full session.
