Payment
-
Payment methods
I accept credit cards and e-transfers. All sessions are invoiced after the apppointment and are due upon receipt.
-
Autism Funding
If your 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 Ontario extended health insurance plan for an occupational therapist. Please look for “occupational therapy” in your coverage, usually in the paramedical or mental health sections of your plan. Some insurers also accept my services as a psychotherapist, but it’s best to confirm with them first: ask them if they cover psychotherapy services provided by an occupational therapist. (In January 2025, Sun Life let me know that they will only accept claims for my services if you have “occupational therapy” coverage, but policies change regularly.)
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.
