More about Therapy Pro’s free initial call
We offer a free 30-minute initial introductory phone call with a therapist in your area. This is an opportunity to ask questions, share what’s on your mind, and see if our approach feels right for you. While this isn’t a therapy session, it’s a helpful first step in starting your therapy journey.
You can use the free call to talk with any available therapist across all our disciplines, including:
- Occupational therapy
- Positive behaviour support
- Psychology
- Speech and language pathology

Our free introductory call helps you explore whether Therapy Pro is the right fit for your needs before committing to a service.

Why book a free therapy introductory call?
Starting therapy can feel like a big decision, and we understand that you may want to explore your options before committing to a service. That’s why our free introductory call is designed to be a no-pressure conversation. It’s a chance to learn more about therapy and determine whether Therapy Pro is the right fit for you.
During the call, you’ll receive guidance from a qualified therapist who can answer your questions, discuss your needs, and provide insight into the different types of support available. Whether you’re new to therapy or considering a different service, this call is an opportunity to talk through your situation with a professional.
We also know that convenience is important. This quick and easy phone call allows you to connect with a therapist from the comfort of your home, without the need to travel or commit to an ongoing service right away.
Finally, if you’re looking for ongoing therapy options, we can help you explore potential funding pathways that may be available to you. While this call is not a therapy session, it is a valuable first step in accessing the right support for you or your loved one.
