Peer Support Program

At Turning Point, we believe in the power of lived experience. Our Peer Support Program is designed to connect individuals facing mental health challenges with compassionate, trained peers who have walked similar paths. Peer Support provides a unique form of guidance, empathy, and understanding that bridges the gap between professional therapy and personal experience.

Peer Support is a structured, non-clinical approach to mental health support, where individuals who have experienced recovery and personal growth offer encouragement and guidance to those facing similar challenges. Our Peer Counsellors provide emotional support, share coping strategies, and help individuals feel heard and understood in a safe and judgment-free space.

We are actively seeking individuals with lived experience to join our Peer Support Program. As a Peer Counsellor, you will play a vital role in empowering others while fostering your own personal and professional growth.

We welcome individuals who:

• Have personal experience with mental health recovery or wellness journeys
• Are passionate about supporting others in their healing process
• Possess strong communication and empathy skills
• Have completed or are willing to complete peer support training
• Are committed to ethical and confidentiality guidelines
• 
  

• Flexible, contract-based opportunities
• A meaningful way to make a difference in your community
• A supportive and inclusive environment
• Professional growth and skill development

If you are interested in becoming a Peer Counsellor with Turning Point, we would love to hear from you!
