Session 1 – Learning about marriage. (Assessments provided)
Session 2 – Individual Sessions

Session 4 and subsequent sessions – Giving, practicing, and evaluation the efficiency of relationship tools.
What does a virtual session with one of our counsellors look like?
Upon Booking: Once you book your counselling session online or over the phone, you will receive an email notification of the date and time of your session. (Note: The time zone is Central Standard Time).
Beginning a Counselling Session: At the time of your session, you will open the reminder email and click on the “begin your online appointment”, button to access the virtual video app.
End of a session: We discuss a plan of action for moving forward in a counselling and book a follow up session(s) if it is fitting. Next, we process payment and email you a receipt which you can use for your mental health employee benefits. (Treaty Non-Insured Health Benefits are billed directly, so no receipt is needed.)
Will my employee benefits cover counselling?
It is IMPERATIVE THAT YOU CHECK with your insurance benefits provider to determine if the therapist you want to see qualifies under your specific policy. Not all insurance benefits policies cover services with all counselors. Many plans are quite specific to a therapist’s credentials.
You will need the credential information below to assess if sessions are covered by your plan:
Sarah’s Credentials: Registered Master’s of Social Work
Josephine’s Credentials: Registered Master’s of Arts in Counselling Psychology
What are the costs of sessions?
Regular Sessions (excluding longer sessions such as the initial marriage counselling session) are $160 – 175.00 / session.
If you do not have coverage and need support with the cost, please let us know and we will accommodate financially the best that we can.
