What can I expect in the first session?
The first session of provides an opportunity for us to meet and get to know each other better. You can expect an informal conversation guided by your level of comfort. Please feel free to bring any questions that you have about therapy. During this session, we might also be curious about what brings you to counselling, what you would most like for yourself out of the process, and what strengths and resources that have helped you along the way.
Are your services covered by extended health insurance?
Many extended health insurance plans cover the services of a Registered Social Worker. Some plans may only reimburse a certain percentage and others may require a referral from a physician. It is recommended that you contact your health insurance provider to confirm the details of your coverage prior to scheduling an appointment. Please note that I do not provide direct billing services. After each appointment you will get a receipt that can be used to submit for reimbursement from your health insurance provider.
