FAQ
How long will the process take?
The length of treatment varies from client to client based on several factors including severity of symptoms, number of presenting concerns, frequency of treatment, and commitment to therapy.
We believe in short-term therapy which consists of teaching clients skills to use on their own to live a healthier and happier life. Many clients see significant improvements within 8-12 sessions; however, some clients only require a few sessions and others require more long-term therapy.
What if I am unsure if I need therapy?
You can book a brief 10-minute, free consultation with a therapist to discuss this further, and ask any other questions.
Will my health insurance cover therapy?
The Medical Services Plan (MSP) in British Columbia does not cover private psychological services such as therapy/counselling. However, you may have extended benefits (e.g., Pacific Blue Cross, Canada-Life, Manulife, Sunlife). If so, you would have to contact your provider to inquire about coverage.
Our office can bill directly to Pacific Blue Cross, Medavie Blue Cross, Veterans Affairs, ICBC, and WorkSafeBC.
How do I schedule an appointment?

Missed appointments without 48-hour notice will be charged at the regular rate.
What is the fee for each session?
The fee is consistent with the British Columbia Psychological Association’s recommended rate. The current rate is $235 for each 50-minute session for a Registered Psychologist.
The fee for each 50-minute session for a Registered Clinical Counsellor is $150 for an individual session and $175 for couples/joint sessions.
