FAQ

There is no single right moment to begin therapy. Many of my clients spent months, and sometimes years, thinking about reaching out before they finally did. If you are getting through your days but feeling exhausted, carrying something you cannot quite put into words, or noticing the same patterns repeating in your life, therapy can offer a space to make sense of it. You do not have to be in crisis to deserve support.

Individual sessions are $175 for 50 minutes, and couples sessions are $220 for 60 minutes. I also reserve a limited number of sliding scale spaces for clients experiencing financial hardship. If cost is a concern, feel free to ask whether one of those spots is available.

Many extended health plans in Ontario include coverage for Registered Psychotherapists (RP), including providers such as Sun Life, Manulife, Canada Life, Green Shield, and Blue Cross. Because coverage varies from one plan to another, I recommend checking with your insurer directly. While I do not offer direct billing, I provide detailed receipts that you can submit for reimbursement.

My practice is fully virtual, allowing me to work with clients across Ontario, including Ottawa, Toronto, Mississauga, Hamilton, and surrounding communities. Sessions take place through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform, so all you need is a private space where you can speak comfortably and a reliable internet connection.

The answer depends on your goals, your circumstances, and the kind of work we are doing together. Some clients work with me for six months, while others continue for several years. Because depth-oriented therapy is less about completing a set number of sessions and more about creating lasting change, progress tends to unfold gradually and in layers. Whether you are new to therapy or wanting to connect with someone new, you will be meet where you are in your journey.

You do not need any previous experience to begin. Many of the people I work with are coming to therapy for the first time, while others are returning after an experience that did not feel helpful. The first session is simply a conversation where we begin to get to know each other, and there is no expectation that you arrive with everything figured out. Whether you are new to therapy or wanting to connect with someone new, you will be meet where you are in your journey. You bring whatever feels possible, and we start there.
