Frequently Asked Questions
What are your sessions fees and do you accept insurance?
Our fees range from $170 to $180 per session, depending on the clinician. All sessions are conducted by master’s-level social workers (MSWs) who are also Registered Social Workers (RSWs). Most insurance plans cover our services. We recommend confirming coverage directly with your provider.
Do you provide in-person or online therapy sessions?
We provide both in-person and online therapy sessions. Our in-person sessions take place at our Leslieville office, located at 235 Carlaw Avenue in Toronto. For those residing outside of the GTA in Ontario, we offer online therapy using a secure, privacy-compliant platform.
How do in-person and online therapy compare in effectiveness?
Research shows that both in-person and online therapy are equally effective, so the choice depends on your personal preferences and circumstances. Online therapy offers flexibility and convenience, breaking down barriers to accessing skilled therapists while allowing you to connect from the comfort and safety of your home—especially helpful when discussing sensitive or distressing topics.
In contrast, in-person therapy may be ideal if you prefer face-to-face interaction, benefit from a structured environment, or find grounding techniques particularly effective in a physical setting. All the types of therapy we offer can be accessed through either option, ensuring you have the support that suits you best.
Do you offer evening and weekend sessions?
Yes, we offer flexible scheduling options, including evening and weekend sessions. Whether you’re balancing work, family, or other commitments, we make therapy accessible at times that work for you.
How often do we meet for therapy?
We recommend starting with weekly or bi-weekly sessions to establish momentum and build a strong foundation for your progress.
What is your cancellation policy?
Your appointment time is reserved specifically for you. If you need to cancel or reschedule, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice. You can do this by emailing your therapist or using our online booking platform.
Appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice, including same-day bookings, will be charged the full session fee. Exceptions to the cancellation fee are made only in cases of medical emergencies requiring hospitalization, a death in the family, or a natural disaster.
