FAQs
Are fees covered by health insurance?
Please check with your provider first to ensure Registered Psychotherapists are covered by your insurance in Ontario. Currently, we do not offer direct billing as a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), however, you will be provided with a receipt that you can submit for reimbursement by your insurance provider.
Do you offer sliding scale fees?
A limited number of sliding scale appointments are available for clients experiencing financial hardship. Please be sure to reach out to further inquire.
How do I know if you are the right therapist for me?
To determine if I am the right therapist for you, I recommend booking a 20 minute consultation call or video session to meet with me to discuss your mental health goals and to see if you feel like we are a good fit.
What are your fees and how long are sessions?
Individual therapy sessions for online or in-person are $175 and run for 50-minutes and $190 for 75-minute sessions.
Do I need a referral to book a session?
No, you do not need a referral to book your first session.
What is your cancellation policy?
Your appointment time is reserved just for you. A late cancellation or missed visit leaves a hole in the therapist’s day that could have been filled by another client. As such, we require 24 hours notice for any cancellations or changes to your appointment. Clients who provide less than 24 hours notice, or miss their appointment, will be charged the full session fee.
What can I expect in my first therapy session?
Your first session is an opportunity for you and your therapist to get to know one another in a safe, supportive space. During the first session, you will discuss what has brought you to therapy, your current concerns, and your goals, while exploring relevant aspects of your history to better understand your experiences.
How often should I attend therapy?
The frequency of therapy depends on your goals, needs, and what you're working through. Many clients begin with weekly sessions to build momentum and establish progress, then transition to biweekly or monthly appointments as they feel ready. Together, we'll determine a schedule that best supports your goals.
What if I don’t know what to talk about in therapy?
That's completely okay. Many people feel this way, especially when starting therapy. Your therapist will help guide the conversation with thoughtful questions, and together you’ll explore what's been on your mind, recent experiences, or patterns that may be impacting your well-being. There's no right or wrong place to start.
