Couples therapy can assist with communication breakdowns, recurring conflicts, trust issues, emotional disconnection, and navigating life transitions together.
The frequency of your appointments will be discussed and determined during your initial therapy sessions, based on your unique needs. Typically, after six to eight sessions, you and your therapist will review your progress. Treatment goals will be assessed periodically and adjusted as necessary. It’s important to remember that you have full control over the therapy process. You are always free to discontinue treatment at any time, regardless of your therapist’s perspective. However, we encourage you to have a conversation with your therapist before making the decision to end therapy. Keep in mind, each therapy experience is individual, and outcomes can vary from person to person.
The first session, or “consultation,” is all about getting to know you and understanding what you’re going through. We’ll take the time to talk about your personal challenges and your situation, so we can create a treatment plan that feels right for you. You’ll be asked some questions, and we’ll explore different aspects of your concerns together. Sometimes, this may include psychological assessments or reaching out to others, like your doctor or family (but only with your permission). Once we have a clear picture, your therapist will share some treatment options with you, and together, you’ll decide on a plan that feels comfortable and helpful for you.
Psychotherapy services are not covered by OHIP. However, many extended health insurance plans provide partial coverage for psychotherapy services. The coverage details, including reimbursement rates, may vary depending on your insurer and plan. We recommend contacting your insurance provider directly to confirm your coverage details and claim process. Payment for services is due at the end of each session. A detailed receipt will be provided, which you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement or use for tax purposes.
To schedule a treatment at Existence Therapy Center, you can email us at [email protected] or conveniently book an appointment online by clicking “Book a Consultation.” Once your appointment is scheduled, one of our therapists will conduct a comprehensive intake interview to assess your need for psychological treatment. We don’t have long wait times to get in with a therapist.
