​

Cancellation Policy: 

​

Clients may cancel or reschedule appointments at any time with at least 24 hours notice, for any reason, with no fee.

 

Late Cancellations (less than 24 hours notice): 50% of the session fee will be charged as a time commitment was made to you and is held exclusively for you.

No-Shows (missed appointment with no notice): Full session fee will be charged, as a time commitment was made to you and is held exclusively for you.

​

As an option: you are welcome to switch to a virtual or phone session instead of cancelling.

​

Please note: If you are late for your session we still need to end on time if there is a client following you. I leave 10 minutes between sessions for confidentiality in client transitions and note taking. If there is a pattern of cancellations, we can assess together what might be in the way of showing up.

​

Billing and payment: I provide direct billing. For insurance providers that I am unable to submit your claim to, I ask that clients pay their invoice (preferable e-transfer to avoid 2.5% credit card processing fee) following the end of a session, and a receipt will be provided for client's to seek reimbursement for the cost of counselling sessions. Please check with your insurance provider, and confirm inclusion of Counselling Therapists and/or Clinical Counsellors.

I provide a limited number of reduced fee sessions for people who do not have insurance/other coverage for the cost of counselling sessions. Please reach out to be added to the waitlist for reduced fee counselling sessions.

Are you a university or college student?

• Most universities in Halifax (including Dalhousie University, Saint Mary's University, and Mount Saint Vincent University) offer 100% coverage up to a certain maximum per year for students to see private practice psychologists, social workers, registered counselling therapists at Green Leaf!

Note that different policies may have different conditions for coverage and maximum levels of reimbursement per year, so check out the links above, review your university health plan, or consult your student association for the exact details of your specific plan.

• For international students, I am able to support the Student VIP insurance program through Blue Cross. Currently, the Student VIP plan covers up to $10,000 at 100% for registered clinical counsellors!

 

• Many universities also have bursaries for students who cannot afford an ADHD or Learning Disability assessment without assistance.

  • For example, Dalhousie University students can apply for this bursary. 

  • SMU students with diagnosed disabilities can apply for multiple bursaries and scholarships.

  • Acadia students can learn more about grants and financial aid for students with disabilities.
