Direct Billing

​

​How Does It Work?

  1. Check Your Coverage: Before your first session, get in touch with your insurer to confirm they cover counselling with Registered Clinical Counsellors (RCCs) or Canadian Certified Counsellors (CCCs). I hold both - so either one is good.

  2. Share Your Insurance Details: When booking, let me know your insurance details. I handle all details with confidentiality.

  3. I Handle the Billing: After your session, I bill your insurance provider directly. This way, you often won’t need to pay upfront.

  4. Settle Any Remaining Amounts: Your insurance will process the payment as per your plan. If there’s any amount left, I'll let you know.

​

Currently I am able to direct bill the following insurance companies / programs: ​

  • Adjudicare

​

Not seeing yours listed? 

Many insurance companies will cover services conducted by a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) or Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC). Unfortunately if your provider is not listed above I cannot bill directly, so you would be required to pay the full service fee in advance, then I issue a receipt and you can apply to your provider for reimbursement. That said - please check with your provider ahead of time to make sure that RCCs or CCCs are covered.
