fee increase

PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT MY FEES WILL INCREASE FROM $130 TO $135 AS OF JANUARY 1, 2021.

COVID RESPONSE

PLEASE NOTE: The CRPO recommends psychotherapists offer virtual therapy sessions as often as possible. In-person sessions are only to be offered if the client cannot use virtual methods of counselling (for various reasons) and that the risk to the client is high if therapy is not available in-person.

Please reach out to me directly to discuss the possibility of in-person sessions.

I HAVE CREATED A PLAN BASED ON THE CRPO'S GUIDELINES TO CREATE AS MUCH SAFETY AS POSSIBLE FOR FACE-TO-FACE MEETINGS.

SCREENING:
SYMPTOM CHECK: IF YOU HAVE ANY SYMPTOMS, PLEASE DO NOT COME TO THE OFFICE. YOU MAY CONSIDER A TELEPHONE/VIDEO SESSION OR REBOOKING. AND IF I HAVE ANY SYMPTOMS, I WILL LET YOU KNOW AND REBOOK THE APPOINTMENT. IN ADDITION, IF I DEVELOP SYMPTOMS AFTER AN APPOINTMENT WITH YOU, I WILL INFORM YOU RIGHT AWAY.
SOCIAL DISTANCING: NO WAITING ROOM: OUR WAITING ROOM WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE AND THE DOOR TO THE OFFICE WILL BE LOCKED. PLEASE TEXT ME (2893351676) WHEN YOU ARRIVE FOR YOUR APPT FROM YOUR CAR OR THE LOBBY (IF YOU CAN ENSURE SOCIAL DISTANCING).
**THIS TEXT NUMBER WILL BE ADDED TO THE BOTTOM OF THE REMINDER EMAILS YOU RECEIVE TWO DAYS BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT. THIS NUMBER IS NOT A PRIVATE NUMBER AND IS NOT MONITORED BEYOND THIS USE. PLEASE USE IT ONLY FOR ARRIVAL NOTIFICATIONS.**
WHEN YOU RECEIVE A RESPONSE TEXT IT MEANS I’M READY FOR YOU TO COME UPSTAIRS. I WILL GREET YOU AT THE DOOR. WE WILL SIT AT LEAST 6 FEET APART AND THERE WILL BE A PLEXIGLAS SCREEN SET BETWEEN US. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO USE YOUR OWN ADDITIONAL PPE, PLEASE DO SO, BUT IT IS NOT REQUIRED.
SPACING APPOINTMENTS: I WILL BE MANAGING APPOINTMENT TIMES IN A WAY THAT WILL ALLOW FOR 30 MINUTES BETWEEN CLIENTS IN ORDER TO CLEAR THE AIR AND SANITIZE THE SPACE. IF YOU'RE SCHEDULED TIME IS IMPACTED I WILL REACH OUT AND SPEAK TO YOU DIRECTLY ABOUT IT.
SANITIZING:
HAND AND OFFICE CLEANING: WHEN YOU ENTER THE OFFICE YOU WILL BE ASKED TO SANITIZE YOUR HANDS WITH OUR PROVIDED HAND SANITIZER. MY CLOTH COUCH WILL BE COVERED, IN PART, BY A PLASTIC COVERING. AFTER EACH CLIENT I WILL SANITIZE THE COUCH COVERING AND ALL THE DOOR KNOBS LEADING INTO THE OFFICE. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS ABOUT YOUR VISIT TO THE OFFICE, PLEASE DON’T HESITATE TO CONTACT ME.

THANKS AND I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU AGAIN...
