Frequently Asked Questions
What does counselling help with?

How do I know if I need therapy?
Therapy can be helpful if emotions feel heavy, persistent, or difficult to manage alone. Many people begin counselling when stress, anxiety, low mood, anger, or relationship challenges start affecting daily life — even if things “aren’t that bad.” You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy.
What is individual therapy and who is it for?
Individual therapy is one-on-one counselling focused entirely on your experiences, goals, and challenges. It’s suitable for teens and adults seeking support with mental health, emotional wellbeing, identity questions, or life transitions. Orange Spark Counselling offers individual therapy in Burlington, both in person and online.
Is online counselling as effective as in-person therapy?
Research shows that online counselling can be just as effective as in-person therapy for many concerns, including anxiety, depression, and stress. Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility while maintaining privacy and therapeutic connection. Orange Spark Counselling provides both online therapy in Burlington and in-person options.

What types of therapy approaches are used?
Therapy at Orange Spark Counselling draws from evidence-based approaches such as cognitive and strengths-based strategies, combined with relational and person-centered support. Sessions are adapted to each client rather than using a one-size-fits-all model.
Is counselling confidential?
Yes. Counselling sessions are confidential and follow professional and legal privacy standards. Information is only shared in rare situations where safety is at risk, as required by law. Confidentiality helps create a safe space for honest conversation and meaningful progress.
