Frequently Asked Questions

Well, for one, you’re here, which tells me that there’s something happening in your life that doesn’t feel quite right. Sometimes the signs are overt and obvious; and other times, they’re more subtle. Whichever it is, listen and trust that.
Counselling serves different purposes for different folks. Some reach out for counselling during a particularly painful time, others after a long period of things feeling lacklustre, and everything in between. Sometimes we know what we need to work on and other times no idea where to even start or what end to pull on.
Whatever brought you here, listen to it and trust it. And don’t wait for the signs to get louder and more painful.

There are a few ways:
If you have some questions or curiosities, you’re welcome to send me a message and I’ll write you back within a business day; or you can book a free 15 minute consultation and we can chat about them.
Or if this feels like a good fit and you’d like to get started, you’re welcome to book a first session. I don’t require a consultation prior to booking.
Whichever path you choose, I really look forward to connecting with you!
PS. If you don’t see a time that works for you on my booking page, just reach out and we’ll find a time that does!

Great question! And a tricky one to give a concrete answer to because it’s not so black and white, and depends on a number of things: your circumstances, the challenges you’re wanting to tackle, how deep they go, what you’re wanting to get out of counselling… just to name a few. I have clients who see me for 6 sessions and walk away feeling better and I have clients who will see me much longer term and we work deeper or on multiple areas. All to say, it’s context dependent. So let’s chat. I am happy to work within the parameters of your life, what you’re wanting and have accessible to you!

The short answer is YES. I’m set up for direct billing with most insurers and am happy to bill your provider on your behalf. However, there are a few insurers which do not yet offer this option to RCC’s in which case you’d pay for the session out of pocket and I will provide you with a receipt that will contain all the info you need to submit for reimbursement from your end.

With the intention of accommodating as many schedules and lifestyles as possible, I’m available both in-person and online on:

With that said, if you don’t see a time that works for you, please reach out and we’ll figure something out.
