Name: ________________________________________________________ Address: _______________________________________________________ Postal Code: __________________ Phone No.:[Cell] ______________________ [Home] ________________________ [Business] _______________________ Email Address: __________________________________________________ Date of Birth: __________________ Referred by: ________________________ You have made the first step to your ongoing change process. This is often a challenging decision to make. Sometimes therapy can seem like hard work with unimaginable rewards. Much of the process involves sharing your personal thoughts and feelings. Your commitment to undertake therapy at this time in your life will be best served if you give this time the greatest value you can. There is a direct relationship between successful outcome of therapy and how strong your belief in the process is. In other words, the more value and positive belief you place on your therapy, the greater your success will be. Therapy can often feel difficult and you will likely have times when you will feel that something or someone seems to take priority over your scheduled sessions. This is typically an ideal opportunity for your own personal growth. It is often more valuable to work through this situation while in a supportive environment. Most clients whom attend regular weekly sessions find it easier to book the same time and day. ie. Wednesdays at 10:00. Sessions are 55 minutes in duration. Regular and timely attendance at all sessions is expected. You are responsible for payment of all booked and confirmed sessions. Fees are $100.00 per session for individual counselling, $120 for couples counselling, and $150.00 for mediation. Payment is required at each session. Fees are not covered by O.H.I.P. Please check with your individual insurance company for possible extended health plan coverage. Employee assistance program coverage may also be available. I have read and understand the above.
