One million Canadian men suffer from major depressive disorder each year. Three of every four completed suicides in Canada are by men. The prevalence of alcohol use disorder is twice as high in men with another mental health diagnosis than in the general population. One third of Canadian men worry that talking about mental health at work could put their job at risk. Men are just as likely as women to have mental health issues yet are far less likely to utilize traditional mental health services. Men are more likely to believe that mental health services are difficult to access, ineffective and invasive. At Cogent, Ontario’s new mental health clinic focussed solely on supporting men, we’re changing that.
Cogent provides discreet, professional psychological assessment and evidence-based psychotherapy delivered by regulated health professionals with decades of experience. We serve all of Ontario via secure virtual sessions and in-person sessions in our Guelph office. Access is quick and straightforward with online appointment booking and no wait lists. We offer daytime, evening and weekend appointments as well as free initial consultations. Psychological Services are covered by most extended health benefits plans.
