Why we have a cancellation policy?

We understand that things happen, i.e. sickness, work projects, emergency work meetings, family events; that being said, scheduling an appointment involves the reservation of time that is set for you. When you cancel last minute or don’t show, it is often too late to offer this time slot to another client. We are agreeing to be available to you with commitment and consistency and we would appreciate if this were reciprocated. Without sufficient notice for cancellation or rescheduling there will be a full charge whether you use your time or not.

Our time and your time are valuable, and we expect clients to respect that time and to provide us with sufficient notice ahead of time when there is a need to cancel or reschedule an appointment.
We have a waitlist for our services and providing us with adequate notice will help another client be seen.
Our policy models clear and healthy boundaries while empowering you to be responsible for your decisions and how they impact the people around you.

    Issues of Psychological Therapy by Expert

    hand-holding-question-mark_1134-114

    I have an extended benefit plan, does that mean I have coverage for therapy/counselling/mental health services?

    Not necessarily. Not all insurance companies or extended benefit plans have coverage for counselling/therapy/mental health.

    How can I figure out if I have coverage for counselling?

    all your insurance provider and ask them if your plan covers the cost for counselling/psychotherapy. Go the extra mile and ask how much coverage you have per year and if your sessions are fully covered or partially (i.e. a plan might cover for $50 per session for $650 per year or other plans cover 80% of the cost per session for up to $1000/year)

    My plan covers me to see a psychologist, does that me I can see a counsellor/therapist/registered social worker?

    No, Registered psychologists and registered Social Workers, counsellors and psychotherapists services are classified differently by insurance companies and therefore if you have coverage to see a psychologists doesn't mean you have coverage to see a therapist/counsellor/social worker...Again you need to check with your insurance provider.

    Do you provide a sliding scale fees?

    We provide special discount rates for students and for seniors.
