Fees for individual clients are $180 per 60 minute session. Fees for couple and family therapy is $230 per 60 minute session.
Payment is due on the day of the session. My preference is that all payments are made by etransfer.
Major credit cards can be used for payment, however there is a 4% credit card processing fee that the bank charges. Please note that these bank fees are in addition to my own fees and are paid by the client.
I reserve a few sessions per month on a sliding fee scale for clients who are unable to pay full fees. Please contact Mike directly by email to inquire if space is available ([email protected]).
Insurance and Employee Benefits
Psychotherapy is not covered by OHIP, but fees for psychotherapy may be covered under third party insurance plans or employee benefits. Mike is an approved provider through Medavie Blue Cross and Health Claims for Auto Insurance (HCAI), both of whom pay for services directly. For other insurance providers, the client is responsible for submitting receipts for reimbursement to the provider. Services not paid for by insurance can be claimed as a medical expense on your income tax.
Mike's practice is supervised by a Registered Psychologist. Upon request, a receipt co-signed by Mike and the supervising Registered Psychologist is available for third party insurance providers who cover Psychologist fees.
Cancellations
For sessions cancelled less than 24 hours in advance, the full cost of the session may be charged.
