Question 2

Do you see children or adolescents?

Accepted Answer

Question 3

Am I covered by my insurance?

Accepted Answer

Like many counsellors, I am unable to bill directly for most insurance plans. However, if your insurance plan covers sessions with a mental health counsellor or a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), you should be eligible for reimbursement for a certain number of sessions, depending on your plan. Be sure to check with your insurance provider for specific details about your coverage.

Question 4

What should I expect during my first session?

Accepted Answer

During your first session, we'll discuss your goals for therapy and the challenges you're facing. I will take time to understand your unique situation, and we’ll talk about the best approach moving forward. It’s also a chance for you to ask any questions you have about the process.

Question 5

How will I know when I'm "done" therapy?

Accepted Answer

The end of therapy is a personal and often gradual process. It’s typically when you feel you have achieved your goals, developed effective coping strategies, and feel equipped to handle challenges independently. Together, we’ll regularly assess progress and discuss how you’re feeling about the work we’ve done. When the time comes to conclude therapy, it will be a mutual decision, and I’ll support you in feeling confident about transitioning out of therapy.

Question 6

Is my counselling confidential?

Accepted Answer

Yes, confidentiality is a cornerstone of our work together. What you share in counselling will remain private, with a few legal exceptions (such as harm to yourself or others). If you have any questions about confidentiality, feel free to ask.

Question 7

How do I book a session?

Accepted Answer
