Payment

Payment Methods
I accept credit cards and e-transfers. Sessions are invoiced immediately after the appointment and are due upon receipt.
-
Autism Funding
If your child or teenager has an autism diagnosis, your funding through the Ontario Autism Program (OAP) can be used for sessions with me as a registered occupational therapist.
-
Canadian Taxes
Speak with your accountant or tax preparer, as occupational therapy fees are tax deductible as medical expenses. They are also GST/HST exempt.
Insurance / Extended Benefits
You might have coverage from your extended health insurance plan for an occupational therapist. Please look for “occupational therapy” in your coverage, usually in the paramedical or mental health section of your plan. Some insurers also accept my services as a psychotherapist: currently, I have heard that Desjardins and Industrial Alliance cover my services as a psychotherapist, while Sun Life and Manulife (depending on the package) often have OT coverage. Please confirm with your insurer first (you can provide them with my OT registration number to check: G2415825).
For those who have confirmed their coverage, I will provide you with a receipt after each session is paid, which you can submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement.
Cancellation Policy
Please cancel or request an appointment change 24 hours before. Late cancellations and no shows will incur a half-session fee ($85). In the event of a serious accident, emergency or other similar situation outside of your control, please deal with your situation first and notify me at your earliest convenience, or I will follow up with you within 24 hours of the missed appointment.
