Free Meet and Greet

This is an opportunity to learn how we will work together and what you can expect from therapy. This allows you an opportunity to first meet with your therapist and decide if they will be the right match for you. If you feel that it may be a good fit, you can schedule a full appointment, however there is no obligation.

Full Mental Health Assessment

The purpose of the first full appointment is to complete an assessment. The highly structured assessment will focus on gathering information regarding your symptoms, strengths, challenges, and history. This information will shape the overall treatment plans and goals for therapy. The assessment can sometimes take more than one appointment and it is sometimes best to schedule a longer appointment for your assessment.

Individual Counselling

Once the assessment and treatment plan is completed, you will finally begin the counselling process. Appointments can range from 25 Minutes to 80 Minutes. All counselling is individualized. For most problems, people may need anywhere from 6 to 20 sessions, and sessions are typically weekly or bi-weekly. As you progress through therapy, the length between appointments will likely increase as you start to see improvements and learn new ways to manage your mental health.

You will also be asked to provide a credit card prior to scheduling. We will bill you directly and provide an receipt after each appointment that can submitted to your insurance provider.

  • On the Jane Platform, you will be able to schedule your first appointment through the calendar. You will be sent an email reminder when your appointment is booked and another appointment reminder near the appointment date.

  • At the time of your appointment, you will access a website link to the secure video platform. There is no need to download any apps or video meeting services. Please be sure you have a quiet and private place to attend your appointment. At the end of the appointment you will discuss whether you would like to schedule a new appointment.

    After the appointment you can schedule a new appointment.

  • You will be charged on your credit card and provided a receipt to submit to your insurance provider for potential reimbursement. While most insurance providers accept services from Richardson Counselling, you should confirm with your insurance provider that services are covered under your plan.
