Frequently Asked Questions
These are some of the questions which our therapists can help
answer:
1."Is my child's behavior normal?" or "When
do I need professional help?"
In response a therapist may ask the parent to consider the
following:
-
Does your child appear unhappy?
- Have their school work/marks declined?
- Do they have difficulty interacting with others socially?
- Do they have worries and fears that stop them from age
appropriate activities?
2. Is there such a
thing as “preventative treatment?”
In
cases such as separation, divorce, relocation (home/ school)
or a death, a consultation with a therapist could provide
the family or individual with strategies to manage the transition
process.
3."Is there a
long wait for treatment?"
No, most families
can be referred to a therapist immediately.
4." What is
the cost?"
Fees for assessment, consultation,
and treatment need to be arranged with the therapist. Our
psychotherapy services are not covered by OHIP. Insurance
coverage may be available for part or all of the services
through third-party coverage through your employer. Fees
may also qualify as a deductible medical expense.
