F.A.Q

It is your right to have the information you disclose remain confidential. For this reason information you choose to disclose will remain strictly confidential, except where given written permission. While you have a right to confidentiality, some limitations to this apply including the following exceptions:

By law your counsellor is obligated to break confidentiality and report any information that is disclosed regarding intent to harm yourself, intent to harm someone else, and child abuse. Additionally, counsellor notes on sessions can be subpoenaed by a court of law.

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 client. As such, I require 24 hours’ notice for cancellations or rescheduling or a full session fee will be charged. I am only able to waive the cancellation fee in the event of a medical emergency, the death of a loved one, or natural disaster.

$150 for a 50 minute individual session

$90 for a 30 minute wellness check/maintenance session
