BounceBack

Provider: Community | Care Categories: One-On-One Sessions, Guided Learning, Information & Education, Self-Guided Activities

BounceBack is a free, guided self-help program that's effective in helping people aged 15 and up who are experiencing mild-to-moderate anxiety or depression, or may be feeling low, stressed, worried, irritable or angry.

Participants receive telephone coaching, skill-building workbooks and online videos to help them overcome these symptoms and gain new skills to regain positive mental health. To receive telephone coaching support, clients must either be referred by their primary care provider (family doctor, nurse practitioner) or psychiatrist, or they may self-refer as long as they're connected with a primary care provider. For those who are not quite ready for coaching, our online videos can provide helpful tips.
