CareNow Counsellor-Assisted is a digital web-based service where users can access self- directed wellbeing content and reach out via messaging for counselling support as needed. Users exchange messages with a counsellor as part of an ongoing conversation in asynchronous chat. This allows users time to review the resources and practice the exercises in between interactions with their counsellor.
