Evening and weekend sessions!
Whether you're dealing with the excitement and challenges of new beginnings or coping with the difficulties of unexpected transitions, Shawna Martin Counselling provides a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can explore your feelings and develop effective coping strategies.
A good fit is important! Anyone reaching out to get help hopes to get the right support. We can decide if I am a good fit or refer you to another support if that is something you want. After the initial consult, we will only use a secure platform moving forward. I use Jane, a secure and easy online booking site!
Insurance Coverage Information
Private insurance and health benefit plans can vary widely, with distinctions often made between psychological services, psychotherapy, and registered social worker services. We encourage you to contact your Insurance company prior to booking to ensure coverage for the specific service you are seeking. This proactive step can help clarify any potential costs and ensure a smoother process for your appointment.
I am a Registered Social Worker in Ontario.
Payment Policy Information
Please note that we do not directly bill insurance companies. Payment is required in full prior to the beginning of each session. We offer convenient payment options, including credit and direct e-transfer. Upon payment, you will receive a receipt that includes the therapist’s registration/license number. Kindly manage any reimbursement process directly with your insurance provider, as it remains your responsibility.
