Are you covered by Insurance?

Is Video Therapy a right fit for me?
Advantages:
Convenience: No need to travel or deal with commuting costs.
Flexible location: Join from wherever you feel safe—home, office, or a private space.
Comfort: Some people find it easier to express themselves from familiar surroundings. While it may feel awkward at first, many find it becomes natural over time.
You’re in control: Video therapy allows you to shape your experience in a way that meets your needs.
Considerations:
Privacy: While services comply with PHIPA and PIPEDA privacy regulations, no online platform can guarantee 100% security. Industry-standard encryption is used.
Technology: A stable internet connection and working audio/video are required.
Potential interruptions: To ensure a smooth session, silence background programs and minimize distractions (e.g., pets, children, deliveries, alarms, notifications).
