Coverage Options
Insurance
Psychological services are not covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP). However, many private Insurance Companies (e.g. Sun Life, Great West Life, Blue Cross, Manulife) have policies and provisions which cover psychological services.
Tax Deductions
Fees not covered by your insurance company may be able to be used as a deduction for your income tax return under medical expenses.
(*Please Note: To confirm specific details on available coverage and/or any tax savings, you will need to contact your Insurance Provider and/or Tax Accountant, respectively.)
Doctor Referrals
You do not need a referral from your doctor to book an appointment with me, however, your insurance company may require a referral as part of their requirements for you to make a claim for coverage. It is recommended you contact your insurer directly before booking a session and confirm if a referral is required. This may help in avoiding any possible lapses in your coverage of psychological services.
Methods of Payment
Forms of payment accepted are: Cash, Cheque, Debit Card, Interac e-Transfer, Visa, MasterCard or American Express.
