At our psychotherapy practice, we understand that financial concerns are one of the most significant obstacles to seeking therapy. We believe that everyone should have access to mental health support, which is why we are committed to making our services more affordable and accessible. Here’s how we’re addressing the financial barriers to therapy:
Recent Removal of HST on Psychotherapy Services
Great news! The recent removal of the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) on psychotherapy services has allowed us to lower our fees. This legislative change is a significant step toward making mental health care more affordable for everyone. By eliminating the HST, we can now pass these savings directly to our clients, reducing the overall cost of therapy.
Insurance Coverage
We are pleased to inform you that our services are covered by most private insurance plans. This means that if you have insurance, you may be eligible for reimbursement for your therapy sessions. Additionally, we are continuously working to make the process as smooth as possible. Some insurance providers are now starting to allow us to do direct billing, which means you don’t have to worry about the upfront costs – we handle the paperwork and billing directly with your insurance company. When you book an appointment, please let our admin team know what kind of insurance coverage you have so that we can help you make the payment and reimbursement process as smooth as possible.
Onboarding Student Therapists for Reduced Rates
Starting in September, we are excited to welcome student therapists to our team. These student therapists are in the final stages of their training and are supervised by our experienced professionals. They will offer therapy sessions at reduced rates, making it even more affordable for you to access the mental health support you need. This initiative is part of our ongoing effort to provide quality care at various price points, ensuring that financial constraints do not prevent you from seeking help.
At our practice, we are committed to understanding the financial barriers to therapy and finding ways to overcome them. We believe that everyone deserves access to quality mental health care, and we are here to support you on your journey to wellness. If you have any questions about our fees, insurance coverage, or student therapist program, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We are here to help!
