Not necessarily. Your plan may cover only a portion of the session fee or have an annual maximum. You are responsible for any amount not covered by your insurance plan.
This depends on your insurance provider and individual benefits plan. We recommend confirming that virtual counselling or psychological services are covered before your appointment.
When checking your coverage, you may want to ask:
-
Is counselling or psychological therapy covered under my plan?
-
What professional designations are eligible for coverage?
-
What is my annual maximum?
-
What percentage of each session is covered?
-
Is direct billing available?
-
Do virtual appointments qualify for coverage?
-
Do I need a referral before receiving coverage?

You Don't Have to Figure It Out Alone
Sometimes it's hard to know where to start. You may have been carrying things on your own for a while, hoping things will get better with time.
You do not need to have everything figured out before reaching out. Therapy offers a space to slow down, feel heard, better understand what's happening, and explore meaningful next steps together.
