At Inspirit Mental Health Counselling, you will receive support from a licensed counsellor who holds a Master’s degree in counselling psychology, and who has extensive experience in mental health care. Additionally, your counsellor is committed to ongoing education to remain informed about the latest best practices in counselling.

Our pricing structure is designed to offer you the best service possible. We begin with a complimentary initial consultation call, which helps you assess whether therapy is the right fit for you. Subsequent sessions are priced at $160.00, including the initial intake session that lasts 75 minutes, followed by 60-minute sessions thereafter. The intake process may take extra time to address consent, gather information about your current issues, and understand your experiences thoroughly.

In addition to the time spent in sessions with you, the Registered Clinical Therapist (RCT-C) will dedicate time to necessary administrative responsibilities such as record keeping and billing, along with conducting evidence-based research and planning. This ensures you receive the highest quality of care during your sessions, while also maintaining precise records.

Registered counselling therapy is typically covered by private insurance in Nova Scotia. Currently Inspirit Mental Health Counselling provides direct billing through Telus eClaims. Alternatively, you will receive a receipt, upon payment, that you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement. It is essential to consult your insurance provider before your first session to confirm that Registered Counselling Therapy is part of your plan and to understand any limits or deductibles that may apply.

Inspirit Mental Health Counselling accepts e-transfer, Visa, Mastercard, Amex, and Apple Pay for online payments. Clients will be invoiced after their session and will receive a detailed receipt once payment is made.

Inspirit Mental Health Counselling is committed to providing socially just and culturally responsive counselling, and we understand the challenges some populations face in being able to access support from a licensed mental health professional. We offer select reduced rate counselling sessions through Open Path Collective to honour our ethical committment.
