Is Psychotherapy covered by insurance?

Psychotherapy is not covered by OHIP, but most insurance companies do offer coverage for psychotherapy! Check with your insurance company if you have coverage before beginning therapy.

Each 50 minute session is $160 + HST and are paid typically by credit card. 

It depends on the person and the presenting concern, but typically people can have 5-10 sessions for a course of treatment, though sometimes clients stay on for much longer for more long-term care or maintenance. 

That depends on the person and presenting concern! Ultimately, you are "driving the car", so you get to decide, but I sometimes like to suggest for us to start working together weekly, and then slowly increasing the time between sessions to help create more sustainable change over a longer period of time. 

Each person is different, and therapy is hard and sometimes difficult work. Sometimes having our questions answered can make us feel more ready, so feel free to reach out to ask questions, or book a free 15-minute consult!

No, I cannot! A Psychotherapist cannot diagnose or prescribe medication, but I can help facilitate and support you connecting to your family doctor, who can provide a referral to a psychiatrist, or provide medication (if that is what you are interested in). 

No, I do not.

I see clients virtually who are located in Ontario.
