Your extended health provider may cover the services provided under “Registered Psychotherapist.” Please inquire directly with your extended health provider with coverage related questions. You will be provided with a receipt upon payment. This can be submitted to your provider for reimbursement if coverage is available. Registered Psychotherapists do not offer direct billing to insurance provider at this time.
In Ontario, the CRA recognizes Registered Psychotherapists as medical practitioners for tax purposes. Psychotherapy fees are eligible for the medical expense tax credit.

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 patient. As such, we require 24 hours notice for any cancellations or changes to your appointment. Clients who provide less than 24 hours notice will be charged 50% of the fee. Clients who miss the appointment without notice or provide less than two hours notice will be charged the full fee.
