Service Fees

Fees

Psychotherapy is not covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP). However, most extended health insurance plans may cover all or part of the fees for psychotherapy services.

Since health insurance coverage for psychotherapy can vary, it is recommended that you review your insurance plan prior to your first session to understand the coverage limits, claim procedures, receipt requirements, and whether a physician’s referral is necessary.

Payment

Payment for services is due at the end of each session. I accept payment by cash, e-Transfer, credit card, and cheque.

Please note that iMind Psychotherapy does not bill directly to private insurance. As such, you will be responsible for paying for the cost of services and submitting the receipt to your insurance provider for reimbursement.

If you do not have private insurance or employee benefits to assist with financing therapy, or you have exhausted your annual benefits, please be aware that any out-of-pocket service fees paid can be included as medical expenses on your income tax return. 

Cancelled or Missed Appointments

Appointment times are reserved specifically for you. You may cancel or reschedule an appointment with at least 24 hours-notice. Appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours-notice or missed appointments may result in a late cancellation fee. However, fees for missed or canceled sessions may be waived in certain circumstances, which will be considered on an individual basis.

Please note that insurance companies do not cover fees for missed appointments and late cancellations. Therefore, you will be responsible to cover the cost of the fees.
