BridgePoint Center for Eating Disorders

Recovery isn’t a straight line—and sometimes, you just need to talk it through.

BridgePoint offers free, virtual counselling sessions to support individuals in navigating challenges, exploring emotions, and reconnecting with their values in recovery. These Single Sessions or One-at-a-Time (OAAT) appointments are designed to offer timely, focused support—without the pressure of committing to ongoing therapy. Open to BridgePoint alumni and those exploring recovery, it provides space to navigate current challenges, with the option to return for additional sessions if needed.

Now open to both new and returning participants!
Free of charge for Saskatchewan residents with a valid health card

You decide what we talk about. Together, we’ll explore your current experience, reflect on your values, and identify practical next steps. Follow-up sessions are available if you’d like to reconnect, or you can explore other BridgePoint supports at any time.

Testimonials

I trust everyone and the confidentiality and the trust here. It's difficult at times, very emotional and it's hard dealing with a lot of feelings but it's what you have to do and it feels so better much and so supportive.

There's no comparison to anything else I've tried and it’s a real blessing and an opportunity to be able to come here and an opportunity not to be taken lightly. It's a privilege to be here and I know that I will leave here a different person.

I can identify the issues and accept them and be able to learn how to work with that. I think over time we can say goodbye to the eating disorder. There is freedom at the end of the tunnel, but it takes work.

It's not about being broken and getting fixed, it's that we are all individuals who have pain and we're learning how to cope in a very healthy way.

The fact that BridgePoint operates so differently than the traditional medical model was very refreshing, and proved to be vital to my experience and healing.
