Types of intake forms

Our intake forms are tailored for the type of services you are looking for:

Individual Adult Counselling

These services are always available through FRC.

Individual Child/Youth Counselling (18 years of age and younger)

These services are available in January of each academic year (January-July each year). Please note that we require both parents and/or legal guardians to sign the informed consent for counselling services provided to individuals under the age of 19. If a parent or guardian has full custody, one signature will suffice.

Couples Counselling

These services do require supervisors and student-counsellors with the appropriate level of training and experience in this area. They are generally only available later in the academic year (Feb/Mar - July) or with an Advanced Practicum student when available (Sept.-Dec.).

Family Counselling

When parents wish to attend counselling with their children this is called ‘family counselling’. This differs from individual child/youth counselling. These services do require supervisors and student-counsellors with the appropriate level of training and experience in this area. They are generally only available later in the academic year (Feb/Mar - July) or with an Advanced Practicum student when available (Sept.-Dec.).

What happens to my intake form?

Once you submit your intake, you will receive an email confirmation from the FRC Coordinator with information about the next intake steps.
Your intake remains securely saved within your personal account in Owl Practice and is only viewable by the FRC Coordinator until your file is assigned to a counselling team.
When your name reaches the top of the waitlist, the FRC Coordinator will assign your Owl Practice account to the supervisor of an FRC counselling team.
When the team is ready to contact you for appointment scheduling, the team supervisor will then assign a your Owl Practice account to a student-counsellor.
Your intake form is securely stored within your personal account in Owl Practice at all times. If you have questions, please contact the FRC Coordinator.
