Most insurance plans cover the services of registered counsellors, but it is best to have this conversation with them and double-check your benefits package before your first session. Suggested questions to ask your insurance provider include:

1. Does my plan cover me to see a registered counselling therapist? 
2. What is the maximum amount covered per therapy session?
3. Are there any deductibles?
4. Do I need a physician’s approval/prescription for coverage for therapy/counselling?
5. Is the annual total coverage amount for this service (per person)?
6. When in the year does my plan renew?

If your insurance company asks, I am a Registered Counselling Therapist-Candidate, registered to practice in Nova Scotia. My registration number is RCT-C23-002. 

I also offer a limited number of reduced-fee spots for clients who do not have insurance benefits. There is a waiting list to get one of these spots, but if the cost of therapy is a barrier for you, please don’t hesitate to ask.

If you need to cancel or change an appointment, please provide 24-hours notice. I allow one missed appointment without charge. Unfortunately, payment of $50 will be charged for additional missed sessions.
