Fees & Insurance

Individual, couple, and family sessions can be paid for through various means.  We currently accept cash, cheque, and money transfers. Our therapists are approved for VQRP, FNIHB and various Employee Assistance Program providers. Our rates vary based on the services required and there are specialized rates for individuals, couples, families and EMDR sessions.

Depending on the client’s personal situation, there are a number of government programs that may assist in covering the cost of sessions including;

• Criminal Injuries Compensation

Our services are also covered by many extended health benefits that you may receive through your employer.  We encourage you to contact your benefit provider or human resources department directly.  We are able to provide direct billing to individuals covered through Green Shield Canada and have worked with the following EAP Companies

*As of September 26th, 2012, counselling services provided by Registered Social Workers (RSW) can be claimed as a medical expense tax deduction when you file your income tax return. In other words, RSW’s are now authorized as “medical practitioners” for the purpose of claiming medical expenses.
