Therapy
I am not currently accepting new therapy clients, but can happily put you on the waitlist!
I work with individuals facing challenges such as social anxiety, general anxiety, health anxiety, depression, panic, relationship issues, phobias, low self-esteem, etc. I also have dual training in Neuropsychology and am thus interested in providing therapy to individuals struggling with neurocognitive considerations (for example, concussion anxiety, post-concussive identity issues, ADHD, etc.). To learn more about what I offer at my Halifax office, please visit Green Leaf Psychological Services.
About Therapy
Is therapy effective?
In a simple answer, yes. Countless studies have shown that most people who seek therapy experience symptom relief and are able to function better in their everyday life.
How much does therapy cost?
The current rate to see a psychologist in Nova Scotia is $210 per therapy hour. This is the recommended rate set out by the Association of Psychologists of Nova Scotia.
Will my insurance cover therapy?
The Nova Scotia Health Insurance Program (MSI card) does not cover the cost to see a psychologist. However, the fees may be covered if you have private insurance (a policy from your employment, university, or college). Most university/ college students have extensive coverage for psychological services! Popular insurance plans that cover your service at Green Leaf Psychological Services include (but are not limited to): Sun Life Financial, Manulife, Great-West Life, Blue Cross, Desjardins, and Green Shield. If you have any questions about therapy, fees, or insurance, please do not hesitate to reach out!
Do I need a physician's referral for therapy?
No, you do not need a referral from a physician!
