What if the fee is out of reach?
Ask me. I keep a small number of reduced-fee places for people who couldn’t otherwise come. There’s no form and no means test; you tell me what’s possible and we find a number that works. If I’m full, I’ll try to point you somewhere good.
What is the cancellation policy?
Sessions cancelled with more than 48 hours’ notice are rescheduled. Inside that window, the session is charged, because the hour was held for you and can rarely be filled short notice.
Can I claim counselling on my insurance?
Registered Therapeutic Counsellor coverage varies by insurer and plan. I provide receipts, which you submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.
FAQs
Questions about fees
Do you offer a free consultation?
Yes. Every potential client is offered a complimentary 20-minute phone or video consultation. There’s no charge and no obligation to continue. Book here.
How do I pay?
E-transfer, credit card — payment is due at the time of the session.
Do you offer sliding scale?
I hold a small number of reduced-fee places. They come and go depending on my caseload, so the honest answer is to ask and I’ll tell you what’s available right now.
How many sessions will I need?
For couples, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy typically runs 12 to 30 sessions. Individual work varies more widely. I really shine in supporting with long-term therapy.
Still deciding?
The consultation is free and there’s no obligation on either side.
