A session is schedule for 50-90 minutes. If you would like a longer session, please notify me in advance and I will accommodate the schedule at an additional cost.

​

EMDR sessions are 90 minutes.

Most insurance providers do cover a portion of therapy. Please check with your individual provider prior to booking a session to know how much will be covered and if sessions provided by an MSW will be approved.

I am able to direct bill to a number of insurance providers including :

Alberta Blue Cross

Alberta School Employee

Beneva | SSQ

Canada Life | Great-West Life

Desjardin

First Canadian Health

iA Financial Group

Medavie Blue Cross

SunLife

If you pay upfront, you will be provided with an invoice after fees are processed and you are welcome to contact your insurance provider for reimbursement.

There is no standard minimum or maximum number of sessions needed. Depending on the presenting issue(s), the complexity of same and the client's involvement outside of sessions, most people are able to reach their goals in 2- 24 sessions.

I highly encourage clients to maximize their time in therapy by staying engaged and active with materials and resources provided in between appointments.

Your appointment time is reserved just for you. A late cancellation or missed visit leaves a hole in the therapists' day that could have been filled by another client. As such, I require 24 hours notice for any cancellations or changes to your appointment.

Clients who provide less than 24 hours notice, or miss their appointment, will be charged a cancellation fee.

If you are late, your appointment will not be extended past the originally scheduled time and you will be charged the full fee.
