Our services are covered by most insurance plans - make sure to ask your provider if you are unsure of coverage before booking. Let them know our therapists are either RP (Registered Psychotherapists), RP (Qualifying) or MSW, RSW (Registered Social Workers).
These fees includes time spent preparing your unique treatment plan, as well as documentation after the session together and preparation of homework for subsequent weeks of therapy. It also includes any time spent outside of the session (for example - if you need to reach out to us for support in between sessions) *Medical notes and request for files are $30 if created outside of session time. It is important to think of counselling/therapy as an investment in your mental health and/or your child's mental health, the same as you would invest in any personal self care or physical rehabilitation.
What if I cannot afford counselling? The goal is for everyone to afford counselling services. We are proud to offer "sliding-scale" (geared-to-income) fees for those who are unemployed or for those whose income may qualify. If you think you might qualify for a reduced rate, please reach out to us on the "contact" page and explain your circumstances. If you have benefits through work, you are not eligible for sliding scale services until those benefits run out, at which time we can assess your situation. We often have student clinicans who are completing their MSW or MA in Counselling Psychology with us and can offer pricing of $50 per session, sometimes free depending on circumstances and available funding. To see if we have a current student you can check here. What options are available for payment? We require that you add a credit card to your file prior to booking as we do not take card payments inside the office. If you are booking online you will have to provide a credit card, but you do NOT have to pay this way for subsequent sessions. Payment via e-transfer is an option once you are an established client, but must be received on the SAME DAY as the session. We do not accept cash or cheques for any reason. For any further questions, please email us directly.
