Counselling and Therapy Private Practice Policies
Therapy Appointments
Office hours are 4-9pm, Tuesday to Thursday, and appointments are scheduled for 50 minutes or for 100 minutes.
Accessibility is a key value of my therapy practice and partly with this in mind I am currently offering online sessions only. Alongside my other training I undertook PESI Telehealth Certification Training for Mental Health Professionals and have complete confidence in this mode of service delivery.
Please also note that appointments are booked on a first come, first served basis. To ensure you get your preferred appointment time it is advisable to book ahead.

Therapy Appointment Fees
50-minute sessions are $140.00
100-minute sessions are $250.00
(These fees include all applicable taxes)
Please note that 100-minute "double-block" sessions are typically encouraged for first sessions, in accordance with the ISTDP first session trial therapy model which will best allow us to together discover whether this modality is a good fit for you.
100 minute sessions are also highly recommended at any point in the process in order to give us the time you might need to effectively go deeper into the issues you are facing.
I am a registered First Nations Health Authority provider and am also able to offer a sliding fee scale to ensure accessibility to mental healthcare services, particularly for those with marginalized identities.
For those with extended health benefits please note that I don't do direct billing but will provide a receipt upon payment that you can submit to your insurer for reimbursement.

Missed or Cancelled Therapy Appointments
Your appointment time is reserved just for you. A late cancellation or missed visit leaves a hole in my day that could have been filled by another client. As such, I require at least 24 hours notice to cancel an appointment. If you cancel an appointment with less than 24 hours notice, I will need to charge you for the time. Missed appointments will be billed at the agreed hourly rate.
