Sessions and rates.
Every fee is listed here in full, with nothing hidden. The first conversation is always free.

- Both parents in the room, working on a shared parenting issue together.
- Child sleep consultation
- A 60-minute consultation with you, billed at 90 minutes to cover the written sleep plan, follow-up notes, and email support as you implement it.
- Sleep consultation follow-up

How coverage works.
I am a Registered Social Worker (RSW) in the Province of Ontario. Many extended health and third-party benefit plans cover therapy provided by an RSW, often listed under mental health, social work, or psychotherapy.
I do not bill insurers directly. You pay at the time of your session and I issue a receipt right away, which you submit to your own plan for reimbursement.
Check your plan first
Before we begin, it is worth confirming with your insurer that they cover a Registered Social Worker, how much they reimburse per session and per year, and whether they need anything specific on the receipt.
Referrals
You do not need a referral to see me. Some plans still ask for one before they will reimburse you, so it is worth checking.
Receipts
Every receipt includes my name, registration, the date, and the fee, which is what an insurer typically needs.
Payment and policies.
The ordinary details, so there is nothing left to wonder about.
- Payment
- Cash, e-transfer, Mastercard, or Visa. Payment is due at the time of each session.
- Cancellations
- I do not charge for late cancellations. Life with children is unpredictable, and I would rather you not come to a session at a genuinely inconvenient time. Any notice you can give helps me put that time to use. Sessions missed without any notice are charged.
- Crisis support
- I am not a crisis service. If you or someone you love is in immediate danger, please contact a crisis line, your local emergency room, or 911.
