Online therapy means meeting with me through a secure, confidential video platform (or by phone, if you prefer) instead of an in-person office visit. You'll receive a private link before each session; all you need is a quiet space and a stable internet connection. The conversation itself works exactly the way in-person therapy does, we talk, reflect, and work through what's on your mind together.

Yes. Research consistently shows that online therapy is just as effective as in-person sessions for concerns like anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship difficulties. Many clients actually find it easier to open up from a familiar, comfortable space, and the flexibility means therapy fits into your life rather than the other way around.

Our first session is about getting to know each other. We'll talk through what's bringing you to therapy right now, a bit of your history, and what you're hoping to get out of our work together. There's no pressure to have it all figured out; you're welcome to share as much or as little as feels comfortable, and we'll build a plan from there.

Individual sessions typically run 50 minutes. Most clients start with weekly sessions, especially early on, and shift to biweekly or monthly as things start to feel more manageable. We'll revisit the frequency together as we go, based on what actually feels helpful to you.

Please reach out for current session rates, I'm happy to walk you through pricing during your free consultation. Many extended health insurance plans in Ontario offer partial or full coverage for psychotherapy; I'll provide a receipt after each session that you can submit directly to your provider.

Psychotherapy services provided by a Registered Psychotherapist are not typically covered under OHIP. This is why checking your extended health benefits, if you have them, is worth doing before we begin, as many plans do offer coverage.

I'm a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC). This means I meet the professional, ethical, and clinical standards required to provide regulated psychotherapy services in Ontario.

That's completely normal, and more common than you'd think. You don't need a script or a clear starting point. Part of my role is to ask thoughtful questions and gently guide the conversation, so even “I don't really know where to start” is a perfectly good place to begin.
