We accept etransfer, cash, or cheque. If you prefer to pay by credit card, there is a 2.4% fee associated with the payment.

This policy is out of respect for the psychologist who reserved the spot for you in their schedule, and also for other clients who may be waiting for services.

Services provided by psychologists are confidential. We are regulated health professionals, and therefore we are upheld to this rule of confidentiality by the College of Alberta Psychologists.

If you are an adult, the information you provide is confidential. We cannot even confirm or deny that you are a client (ie: to your partner or doctor) without your consent.

If you are a parent or caregiver of a child in therapy, you will work with your psychologist to determine appropriate information sharing depending on the age of the child.

There are times that psychologists must disclose confidential information, even without the consent of clients. These circumstances include:

• If the client is in serious or imminent danger of gravely harming themselves or others (please note, suicidal thoughts without active planning are common in clients, and without serious or imminent risk, it is not necessary for a psychologist to disclose this information without consent)

• If a child or vulnerable person is at risk of being harmed

• If a regulated health care professional (ie: physician, psychologist, physiotherapist) has engaged in sexual abuse or sexual misconduct

• If there is a subpoena by a judge

• In the case of required file review by the College of Alberta Psychologists (ie: in the case of a malpractice complaint)

• If you experienced harm at work that contributed in whole or in part to (psychological) injury, and this injury has caused you to be off work for more than one day and interferes with, or is likely to interfere with, your ability to engage in normal work activities

• If your services are covered through insurance, insurance companies will occasionally audit claims and inquire if clients have attended the sessions they have attempted to claim. There are also mandatory reporting circumstances for some clients (ie: for therapy to support a return to work, clients with the Canadian Armed Forces or Veterans Affairs)
