FAQ
Here you will find some answers to frequently asked questions. Please contact us with any other questions not answered below.
Is Praxis Counselling open during COVID-19?
To ensure your safety, and that of our team, all in-person sessions have been changed to online or phone sessions. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your therapist directly. We will continue to follow the directions of our provincial government and our regulatory bodies to ensure the highest standards are met to keep us all safe and let you know of any updates as they occur. If you have any questions, please ask.
Are my sessions confidential?
Any information provided to your therapist is held in the strictest confidence. No information that you have shared with us can be shared without your specific consent. Our privacy policies will be shared and discussed with you at the beginning of your treatment.
What is your fee?
The fee for therapy depends on the qualifications of the therapist and the duration of the session. While counselling and psychotherapy is not covered by OHIP, many private/corporate/university health insurance plans cover psychotherapy services provided by Registered Social Workers or Occupational Therapists.
How long will I need to be in therapy for?
The length of time varies for each individual client and what they are seeking treatment for. That being said, we draw from science to give us a map of our clients’ treatment journey. Our approach help our clients learn skills and strategies to become their own therapist and understand how they can challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, and better manager their behaviours and emotions.
What is your cancellation policy?
If you need to cancel a session, you must notify your therapist. Except under extenuating circumstances, you will be charged the full fee for any appointment that is missed or cancelled with less than 24 hours notice.
