Insurance

Services may be covered in full or in part by your health insurance or employee benefit plan. Please check your coverage carefully.

If your plan does cover counselling or psychotherapy, then you will pay Calm Waters Counselling for the cost of your session. I will issue a receipt which you can then submit to your extended heath care provider for reimbursement.

Crime Victim Assistance Program

I am an approved provider of counselling services for the Crime Victim Assistance Program (CVAP). If you have been a victim or witness of a crime in BC, you may be eligible to receive free counselling sessions.

An official Claim Number with a statement that indicates the number of approved sessions must be provided before any counselling sessions will be booked.  

Cancellation Policy

You will be required to pay the full cost of the session if you do not show up for your scheduled appointment or you have not notified me to cancel at least 24 hours in advance.
