VQRP+
Victim Quick Response Program+ (VQRP+)
The Centre for Psychodynamic Insights may provide virtual psychotherapy for individuals seeking counselling through Ontario's Victim Quick Response Program+ (VQRP+). This provincially funded program provides short-term financial assistance to eligible victims of violent crime, their immediate family members, and witnesses, including coverage for counselling services.*
Our clinicians offer individualized, trauma-informed psychotherapy to support individuals experiencing psychological distress, emotional difficulties, and other mental health concerns following traumatic experiences.
How to Access VQRP+ Counselling
Individuals interested in receiving psychotherapy through VQRP+ can follow these steps:
1. Book a 20-Minute Consultation
Schedule an initial 20-minute video consultation with CFPI to discuss your concerns, treatment needs, and preferred clinician. Our team will help identify an appropriate therapist based on your individual circumstances.
2. Contact Your Victim Services Worker
Connect with your local Victim Services organization through the Victim Services Directory (VSDR) and inform your worker that you wish to receive counselling through CFPI. Be sure to communicate your specific preference for the clinician you selected during your consultation so that this can be considered as part of your VQRP+ application.
3. Await Confirmation
Once your Victim Services Region has reviewed your request and provided the necessary instructions or authorization, our team will be in touch to coordinate the next steps and arrange your psychotherapy appointments.
Eligibility and Funding
VQRP+ funding is subject to eligibility requirements, approval, and the counselling allocation authorized through your Victim Services Region. Your local Victim Services organization is responsible for assessing eligibility and assisting with the application process.
*Please note that our practitioners are not currently registered with any VQRP+ service delivery region. However, we have been advised of the process outlined above for accessing counselling services through the program. Completing a consultation with CFPI does not guarantee VQRP+ funding or approval of a particular clinician.
