What is your approach?
My approach is informed by psychodynamic therapy, emotion-focused therapy, interpersonal neurobiology, mindfulness practice, and attachment theory. I also integrate sensorimotor psychotherapy (focusing on the effects on the nervous system and body) when dealing with the legacy effects of trauma. With couples I work from a psychobiological and emotion-focused therapy approach.
How often will I have to attend?
My approach is best supported by longer-term weekly or bi-weekly psychotherapy. I encourage clients to commit to regular sessions at the beginning in order to build a strong rapport and gain momentum in the therapeutic process.
What are your rates and what forms of payment do you accept?
My rate is $170 for individual and $200 for couples, per session, which includes HST. I offer sliding scale in certain circumstances, which can be discussed beforehand. I accept EMT or Paypal. Sessions are 50 minutes.
Are you covered by health benefits or insurance?
Most health plans cover psychotherapy services by a Registered Psychotherapist, for which I can provide a receipt.
