Our Counsellors

Seneca counsellors are always approachable and supportive. They hold professional degrees in counselling and accessibility-related fields and balance their theoretical background with extensive practical experience. Our counsellors are continually updating their knowledge in order to meet the needs of students. Service staff are members of a variety of professional associations including: Ontario College Counsellors (O.C.C.), College Committee on Disability Issues (C.C.D. I.) and some professional colleges which are governed by the Regulated Health Care Professionals Act (RHPA).

Accessibility Counsellors

Some students may have functional limitations that impact their ability to fully engage with their academic work. Identifying the appropriate academic accommodations for a student with a disability in the postsecondary environment is critical to ensure students are supported during their time at Seneca. Our counsellors work with students to identify individual accommodation needs so that students can more fully participate in their academic studies.
