  1. Level 1 - Self Management

    Self Management

    This level of care is designed to help you take charge of your mental health before it worsens. You may be having difficulty with sleeping, managing stress, maintaining healthy behaviours or parenting. Resources at this level promote positive mental health through easily accessible digital therapies or self-guided mental health programs in your community. Services are user-friendly and are based on reliable scientific evidence.

  2. Level 2 - Low Intensity

    Low Intensity

    Although brief, level 2 services include some direct contact with a mental health professional. You may also see therapists, coaches or social workers. There will be options to access these services via telehealth, face to face or over the phone. At this level, you should only need a few sessions or engagements before you start to feel more empowered to manage your mental health.
