Fees & Insurance
Our fees are covered by most insurance health packages in Canada, including but not limited to the list below.
We recommend you always check with your insurance provider prior to your first appointment.
Psychotherapy typically involves meeting one on one with a trained mental health professional to talk about the things in your life that cause tension for you.
It usually involves regular sessions, usually fifty minutes in length. Duration and frequency vary depending on the nature of your problem(s) and your individual needs. We offer Online/Video Therapy via a PHIPA compliant platform.
If you do not have private insurance or employee benefits to assist with financing therapy, or you have exhausted your annual benefits, please be aware that any out-of-pocket service fees paid can be included as medical expenses on your next income tax return for a FEDERAL TAX CREDIT.
This is because Registered Social Workers are recognized by, and listed as, medical practitioners in federal legislation.

About Mental Health Counselling Benefits
The program provides coverage for First Nations and Inuit People for professional mental health counselling to complement other mental wellness services that may be available to clients or in communities. The program provides eligible clients with coverage for benefits not available under other federal, provincial, territorial or private health insurance.
How to Access Mental Health Counselling Benefits
You can access mental health counselling benefits from an eligible provider. Providers enrolled with the program generally send claims to bill the program directly. Claims processing services are provided by Express Scripts Canada.
Claims cover costs that are eligible for reimbursement under the program as per established fee guides. You may also submit reimbursement requests yourself. See Client reimbursement for more information.
What is Covered
Every 12 months, an eligible client can receive up to 20 hours of counselling performed by an eligible provider on a fee-for-service basis (such as, individual, family or group counselling). Additional hours in the same 12 month period may be provided on a case-by-case basis.
For more information on specific benefit policies and requirements, refer to the Guide to Mental Health Counselling Services.
