Confidentiality

All sessions are confidential and conducted according to the ethical standards of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA) and the Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals (OAMHP).

Length of Therapy Sessions

Standard sessions are one hour in length, however, longer sessions can be arranged on a case-by-case basis. Sometimes I do slightly longer sessions when working with couples and families. 

While longer sessions are not necessarily more helpful, especially with younger children, more time can be helpful for couples and for families with older adolescents and adult children, as multiple voices and relational dynamics often require more time. Feel free to inquire about longer sessions if you think it may be helpful for you and your circumstances.

Number of Sessions

The number of sessions that will be required will depend on the nature of the concerns, the goals that you have for therapy or coaching, and how much time and effort you are willing and able to allocate for making change outside of sessions.  You are not required to commit to a specific number of sessions and we can work together to assess what might be helpful for you and your circumstances
