Pathsone Mental Health is launching virtual sessions bringing innovative mental health options to children, youth and families in Niagara.

Pathstone is using the virtual platform to offer in-person counselling services during the pandemic and it will complement services after normal operations continue.

It will allow families without reliable transportation to meet with a therapist without leaving home and inclement weather will no longer cancel appointments.

CEO Shaun Baylis says Pathstone aims to reduce wait times for services and remove barriers whenever possible.
