Research suggests that the optimal course of psychotherapy services typically falls within the range of 4 to 26 sessions.

Our fees are structured with the consideration of guidelines established by the Ontario Psychological Association and our operating cost. It’s important to note that many extended health insurance plans offer coverage for all or a portion of the fees associated with psychotherapy services. Additionally, the Canada Revenue Agency recognizes that unreimbursed expenses paid to a registered psychotherapist in Ontario can be claimed as eligible medical expenses on your income tax return. This can help provide financial support and flexibility for your mental health care.

Yes, we are a registered IFHP provider. We accept patients covered under the Interim Federal Health Program for all eligible services.
Starting May 1, 2026, the federal government is introducing a co-payment for all supplemental health benefits. You will pay 30% of the total cost directly to the clinic at the time of your appointment. The remaining balance (70%) will continue to be billed directly to the IFHP by our clinic.
Please present your valid IFHP eligibility document to us when you arrive so we can accurately calculate your 30% co-payment.
