Benefits Coverage
Your Extended Health Benefits package may cover some or all of the cost of counselling provided by a Registered Clinical Counsellor. Please consult with your workplace Human Resources Department or private insurance company to confirm coverage. Receipts not submitted for insurance reimbursement may be tax deductible as medical expenses. Check with your accountant to confirm.

Once an appointment is scheduled, you will be expected to pay for it unless you provide 24 hours advance notice of cancellation (preferably 48 hrs).  It is important to note that most insurance companies do not provide reimbursement for cancelled sessions. 

Frequency and Duration of Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy typically involves regularly scheduled sessions, at least once a week. Longer or more frequent sessions may be helpful to you depending on the nature of your work in psychotherapy.

A normal assessment period length spans four sessions. After that time, I will have a better sense of duration of treatment and we can discuss treatment options. Duration of therapy will vary depending on the nature of your challenges and goals.

In some cases, I see clients bi-weekly and, with those transitioning out of therapy, the space between sessions may extend to monthly. I find that clients know when they no longer need therapy. Follow-up sessions at four or six-month intervals are then welcome to track, celebrate and sustain progress.

Receipts
You will be provided with either weekly or monthly receipts of payment, depending on your preference. If paying via PayPal, you will receive an e-mail receipt of your order.
