Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP) – Mental Health Support

Refugees and certain newcomers may qualify for mental health services under the Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP), which helps reduce financial barriers to care.

IFHP may cover:

  • Counselling and therapy
  • Trauma support
  • Mental health assessments
  • Referrals to specialized services

Coverage and eligibility may vary. Contact the practice to discuss your situation.

Psychosocial Assessments

We provide comprehensive psychosocial assessments to support refugee claims, immigration sponsorship applications, and Pre-Removal Risk Assessments (PRRA) before the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB).

Each assessment offers a thorough evaluation of your psychological, emotional, and social well-being, including the impact of trauma, persecution, discrimination, intimidation, and symptoms of PTSD where applicable. Every report is carefully prepared to reflect your unique experiences and support your legal application.
