I believe that everyone deserves access to quality mental health care. To support this, I offer a sliding scale based on individual circumstances.

Many extended health insurance plans cover mental health counseling services. We recommend checking with your insurance provider to confirm your coverage. We can provide receipts for you to submit for reimbursement.

In most cases, you do not need a referral to see a therapist. However, some insurance plans may require a referral for coverage, so it’s best to check with your provider beforehand.

In your first therapy session, we’ll get to know each other and discuss the reasons you’re seeking therapy. I will guide you through the process, answer any questions you may have, and ensure that you feel comfortable in our online therapy session. We’ll also discuss your goals for therapy, whether it’s to manage anxiety, overcome trauma, or build self-esteem. The goal of the first session is to establish a safe space where you feel supported and ready to begin your healing journey.

Yes, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as in-person therapy for many individuals. Online therapy provides the flexibility to connect from the comfort of your own home, ensuring that you have access to mental health support when you need it most. As a Registered Psychotherapist in Ontario, I use a secure, PHIPA-compliant platform (Jane) to ensure that your privacy is protected during online sessions.

To prepare for your online therapy session, find a quiet, comfortable, and private space where you can talk without distractions. Make sure your device is fully charged and connected to the internet. Having a pen and paper nearby may help if you’d like to jot down any thoughts or goals during our session. Preparing yourself mentally by thinking about what you hope to accomplish in therapy can also be helpful.

Therapy can be a great fit if you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or dealing with emotional distress like anxiety, grief, or low self-esteem. If you’re struggling to cope with life’s challenges, therapy offers tools and support to help you heal and grow.

If you’re unsure, I offer a free consultation to discuss your goals and see if we’re a good fit. Together, we can take the first step toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.
