Cancellation Policy

When you schedule an appointment with me, I am committing to reserving that time slot for you and only you, and you commit to paying for the reservation of that time. I do require 48 hours’ notice for cancellation 

I do understand that emergency and unexpected situations can arise and as such it is my policy to permit 1 late cancellation due to emergency without charge. If an emergency causes you to cancel a session with less than a 48 hours’ notice (and we do not reschedule in the same week) you will be charged a cancellation fee of one half of your regular session fee. Missed appointments and cancellations with less than 24-hours’ notice, are subject to a full session fee charge.

Psychiatric Assessments

Collaborative care for better mental health

Psychotherapy Matters is a virtual care system that connects therapists and their clients with psychiatrists. This includes a psychiatric assessment with a skilled psychiatrist for diagnostic purposes, beyond this a collaborative treatment plan is developed with you and your therapist. For more information, please ask about this during your consultation call or intake appointment. 

Accessible psychiatric support: You benefit from a diagnosis, medication recommendations or monitoring, and psychotherapy — from the convenience of your therapist’s office.

Save time, skip the wait: Through our Virtual Clinic, we work alongside your therapist, while saving you excess travel, multiple practitioner visits and lengthy wait times.

This service is available if you have a family doctor and are interested in a psychiatric assessment for both treatment and diagnostic purposes.

*** Please be advised if you are not interested in therapy and only a psychiatric assessment you will be best served and re-directed by myself to request a referral from your family doctor to the hospital/mental health agency local to you for an OHIP covered psychiatric assessment.***
