You have already taken the first step by asking yourself whether counselling might help you and finding the right counselor is an important part of the process. To help facilitate that decision, we offer a free 20 minute initial session so that you can decide whether there is a good fit before you commit. This is a great opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have about the counselling process.  


We look forward to meeting you!!

The fine print

Taxes

Clinical services provided by a registered social worker (RSW) can be claimed as a medical expense on income tax. In addition, the Canada Revenue Agency recognizes Social Work as a health profession. Therefore, all clinical services provided by an RSW are GST exempt.

Payment Options

We currently accept Mastercard, Visa, cash, e-mail transfers or personal cheques.

Cancellation Policy

Since the scheduling of an appointment involves the reservation of time set aside especially for you, a minimum of 48 hours notice is required for rescheduling or cancellation of an appointment. If for any reason a session is canceled less than 48 hours prior, the full fee will be charged. There is always an option to meet virtually if you’re unable to attend an in-person session. Please note that most insurance does not reimburse for missed sessions. 

Insurance Coverage

Counselling services are not covered by Medical Services Plan (MSP) in British Columbia. Extended health care plans often provide coverage for Counselling (mental health services). It is important that you find out exactly what counselling services your insurance policy covers. If your insurance plan covers counselling services provided by a Registered Social Worker (BCCSW # 09323) or a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (ACCT #2985), we may be able to directly bill for your counselling services.  In some cases, you might have to submitt your receipts to your insurance provider for reimbursement.
