Many extended health plans cover Registered Clinical Counsellors (RCCs). Check with your insurer to confirm coverage. If covered, I can provide receipts with my registration number for reimbursement.

Here’s a quick guide to different designations:

- Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC): Holds a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology and is a member of professional organizations like the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors. Coverage is similar to that for Registered Massage Therapists (RMTs).

- Psychiatrist: A medical doctor who can prescribe medication and diagnose conditions. Covered by BC Medical; contact the BC College of Physicians for referrals.

- Psychologist: Has different training and is governed by a separate body. Some health plans only cover psychologists, so be sure to check your plan’s details.

Rest assured that all conversations you have with me are confidential. 
However, there are 3 conditions in which all counsellors are legally bound to break confidentiality. These are:
        – If a child is at risk of being harmed
       – If you have a clear plan to hurt yourself or someone else
        – If your records are subpoenaed by a court

The session are for 60, or 90 minutes.

You have up to 48 hours before the session to cancel your appointment without penalty.  The full fee will be charged if you provide less than 24  hours notice unless there is an emergency. If you are running late please text or leave a message to let me know when you expect to arrive.  Please keep in mind that I might be in another session up until your appointment so I may not reply right away.  I am willing to wait 30 minutes for you to arrive and you will have the remaining scheduled time.  After that our session is cancelled.  Either way, you will be billed for the full session.
