Fees
Payment Options
A payment can be made in the form of Etransfer or Credit Card payment through Jane app
Insurance Coverage
I encourage you to verify with your insurance company, Employee Assistance Program (EAP), or post secondary benefit package to confirm if they cover services provided by a Registered Social Worker (RSW).
I do not bill insurance companies directly, but will provide you with a receipt that you can submit back to your insurance provider.
Cancellation Policy
If you cannot make an appointment, please let us know within 24 hours, so Mel can use your time slot for other clients wanting sessions. Cancellation without 24-hour notice will result in 50% payment.
If you have an appointment and do not show up, you will be charged the full rate of your session. We do understand that emergencies arise and life happens. In such cases, please contact us either through email or by filling out the form below and we can discuss this fee being waived.
