Insurance and Fees

Insurance

I am in the network for:

  • SunLife *
  • GreenShield Canada
  • Medavie Blue Cross
  • SSQ Insurance
  • Empire Life
*Note I have not listed my practice in the SunLife Lumino app because the listings there have ratings attached to them and the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario states that, "if a registrant linked their advertising directly to a third-party rating or review site, this could be considered inappropriately using a testimonial." But, rest assured that I do meet with and have met with many clients who have SunLife plans, so if comfortable, perhaps check with a SunLife rep directly to see if my services would be covered by your plan.

That said, please contact your insurance provider to verify how your plan compensates for psychotherapy or counselling services and providers because each person’s plan is different.

If you have a different insurer than those listed above, services might still be covered in full or in part, so you can check with them.

If you are in Alberta, the services of a “Canadian Certified Counsellor” or “Counselling Therapist” are covered by some plans. If you are in Ontario, usually the services of a “Registered Psychotherapist” are covered.

Fees / Payment

The fee for a 50-minute virtual session is $140.00.

The fee for a 50-minute in-person session (available in Calgary) is $170.00.

Payment is generally by e-transfer. If you prefer cash of cheque, let me know and I will try to accommodate.

I recognize credit cards are convenient, but most of the processing companies collect customer data and store it outside of Canada, and I don’t consider that best practices for my psychotherapy / counselling practice; that said if this is a barrier to service access for you, let me know and we can discuss.
