Well, yes, I couldn't agree more about the quality of care. But, there are some pretty amazing agencies providing some of the top research on the world here. University of B.C., Center for Addictions and Mental Health, U of Toronto, etc.
Now, you will have to search, but I did it, and lucked upon an MSW therapist who specializes in grief and bereavement issues. I was able to get the province of Ontario to pay, but it was through university Ontario Student Assistance Program. If you have your residence papers, you should be able to access any education funding, which includes therapy funding. BUT, you of course have to be, well, taking at least a course! lol. I am classified as having a disability, so tuition, therapy, completely free.
But, I would also highly recommend the Canadian Mental Health Association (Not to be confused with the above cAmh..lol) Again, if you do the leg work, they will assist you in finding the best therapists going, and you most likely won't have to pay for it. I have a community BSW CMHA worker who I check in with twice a month, and we have emerg plans set up for hospitalization, suicide intervention. No charge...
