Assessment Session
Your initial mental health counselling appointment at Hyperion is a comprehensive, person-centred intake designed to understand your story, strengths, and goals. Delivered via telehealth or as a home visit, this session typically includes:
Biopsychosocial Assessment
We explore current concerns, history, daily routines, strengths, supports, and any factors affecting your well-being.
Screening & Safety
With your consent, we may use brief, evidence-based tools (e.g., PHQ-9, GAD-7, AUDIT) to help clarify symptoms. We also review risk and create a basic safety plan if needed.
Goal Setting
Together, we define clear, realistic outcomes—whether reducing stress and anxiety, improving mood, addressing eating-related concerns, or building strategies for addiction recovery.
Personalized Care Plan
You’ll leave with a tailored plan outlining session focus, between-session skills (e.g., grounding, cognitive strategies, pacing), and recommended frequency. When helpful, we coordinate with our physiotherapy, exercise physiology, or dietitian teams for integrated care.
Informed Consent & Privacy
We review how counselling works, your rights, confidentiality limits, and how we protect your information (HIA/PIPA compliant).
Follow-Up Sessions
After your assessment, follow-ups focus on making steady, practical progress:
Progress Check-Ins
We track changes in symptoms, stressors, and functioning, and celebrate wins.
Skill Building & Practice
Sessions may include CBT/ACT-informed strategies, motivational interviewing for behaviour change, pain-coping tools, or relapse-prevention planning—matched to your needs.
Plan Refinement
We adjust goals, introduce new skills, or pace the work differently as life changes.
Addressing New Concerns
If new challenges arise, we adapt promptly and revise the care plan together.
Ongoing Support & Accountability
Our aim is to help you feel better—and stay better. Regular follow-ups provide structure, encouragement, and problem-solving so you can maintain gains between sessions. When appropriate, we collaborate with your broader care team and share concise progress updates with your permission.
Expect a respectful, collaborative approach focused on your goals, your values, and durable results—delivered virtually or in the comfort of your home.
