Frequently Asked Questions

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.

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.

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.
