Will my health insurance cover most of the costs of family therapy counselling?

Almost all Extended Health Care Plans cover all or a portion of the costs for a psychologist under "psychologist services", "psychotherapy", or "counselling". Contact your insurance agent for more information on reimbursement procedures and coverage information. Direct Billing can be performed for a number of companies. Direct billing is where the Psychologist will bill your insurance company and you will only be responsible to pay for your portion of the session cost.

Will all members have to attend family counselling sessions together?

Attending family counselling sessions as a family works best for the relationship. It will help to see all sides of the story and different perspectives on the issues you wish to tackle. If for whatever reason someone can not make it to the session we can always reschedule up to 24 hours beforehand.



What are the steps I need to take to begin the family counselling process?

The first step to begin family counselling is understanding that there is nothing wrong with asking for help. Counseling should be proactive and provide the right tools to better the relationships within the family to be healthy and happy in everyday life.
