Approach to Therapy

What to Expect

You’ll be met where you’re at, as this is a space where you’ll feel seen, heard, and supported. Together, we’ll explore what’s most important to you and develop a personalized plan to help you reach your goals.

You can expect us to work collaboratively, setting clear therapy goals and checking in along the way to ensure your progress feels meaningful.

We focus on building a relationship of trust and understanding, so you feel empowered and supported as you navigate challenges and create lasting change in your life.

Scheduling and Payment Questions

  • When you are first starting counselling, it is helpful to book a few sessions (about 3-4) closer together, either weekly or bi-weekly. This allows time for you to share your reasons for coming, collaborate on your goals, and get comfortable with the counselling process.

    Depending on your goals, you may decide to continue meeting bi-weekly or every 3 weeks to build on your progress and get the support you need.

    Once goals have been met, you may decide to check-in once a month, every 6 weeks, or drop in as needed.

  • Individual (50 min) $170

    Couples + Family (50 min) $190

    Parent Check-In (30 min) $90

  • Payment is required at the end of each session unless other arrangements are made in advance. Accepted forms of payment include: cash, cheque, e-transfer, or credit card.

    You can safely save your credit card in your booking profile on Janeapp and payment will be processed automatically.

    A receipt will be emailed to you for your extended health care plan and tax purposes. Fees for Registered Clinical Counsellors (RCC) are often covered by extended health plans. It is recommended that you check with your plan directly as plans vary.

  • If you have coverage for working with a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), you will be able to submit your receipt to your insurance provider for reimbursement.

    Some insurance providers allow direct billing. Please inquire to see if your provider allows this.

  • We require 48 hours notice to change or cancel a counselling session otherwise the full fee will be charged.

    Exceptions are made for circumstances beyond your control, such as accidents or illness.
