    If you'd like this, please request it from your therapist.

  • How do I make payment?

    Payments are made via credit card, through Jane.


    Here's what Jane says about storing credit card info:


    "No credit card data is stored in Jane. When you enter credit card information into Jane, Jane creates and keeps a token that can be used to reference that information. But the actual sensitive information is sent to and stored within our payment partner Stripe, which holds the highest security certification in the industry."


    If you cancel a session 72 hours in advance of the session, you will be refunded for the session. If you cancel a session within the 72 hour window, you will be charged 75% of the session fee and the rest will be refunded. There are exceptions to this outlined in the client consent form that you sign on booking.

  • Do you accept insurance?

    Most insurance providers offer coverage for Registered Social Workers and Registered Psychotherapists, but please contact your company or insurance provider to verify this.


    To receive insurance coverage, you'll need to make payment and then submit your receipt to your insurance company. Receipts will be provided promptly.


  • Are discounts available?

    Being a small and specialized private practice, unfortunately we can't offer discounts at this time. We will strive to offer discounts to those in need in future.



  • Can I do an in-person session?

    At this time, all of our sessions are virtual as this set-up works best for most of our clients. We hold meetings, trainings and group sessions at our office.
