- Brief, scheduled tele-counseling sessions with a mental health professional, with more ability to accommodate students’ culture and lived experience preferences.
- Chat support with peers and with professionals.
- Virtual fitness support, online health assessments, well-being articles, videos, and podcasts.
While the 24/7 crisis and consultation lines can be accessed via phone, other platform features require the free TELUS Health Student Support app, available in the and .
