Consent & Fees

Therapy is a shared process grounded in understanding, choice, and mutual respect.

Informed Consent

Before beginning therapy, it is important that you understand the nature of the process, what to expect, and your rights as a client. Informed consent means that you are choosing to participate freely and with full awareness.

We will review the consent form together at the start of therapy and you are welcome to ask questions at any point about the process, boundaries, or approaches used.

Therapeutic Process

Therapy is a collaborative process. It may lead to increased awareness, insight, and relief, and at times may involve discomfort as difficult thoughts, emotions, or experiences are explored.

You have the right to pause, redirect, or discontinue therapy at any time.

My role is to provide a consistent, professional, and confidential environment in which this work can take place.

Fees and Session Length

Session Fee: $250 per session (50 minutes).


Fees are due at the time of session and may be paid by e-transfer, credit card, or direct billing when available.

Direct Billing available for:

Cancellation Policy

A minimum of 48 hours’ notice is required to cancel or reschedule a session.
The full session fee applies to late cancellations and missed appointments.

If you are aware of a scheduling conflict, please provide as much notice as possible. In certain circumstances, I may be able to offer flexibility depending on availability.

Client Rights

You have the right to:

  • ask questions about your treatment or the therapeutic process at any time

  • decline or withdraw consent without penalty

  • request a referral to another professional

  • access your records or request corrections if needed.

Open communication is an important part of the process, and you are encouraged to raise questions, concerns, or feedback as they arise.
