Frequently Asked Questions
You Got a Question?
Do you offer affordable counselling in Scarborough?
Yes. We provide affordable and sliding scale therapy in Scarborough for those who qualify.
Is psychotherapy in Scarborough covered by OHIP?
Psychotherapy is not covered by OHIP, but many extended health insurance plans reimburse sessions.
Do you offer evening or weekend therapy in Scarborough?
Yes. We provide flexible evening and weekend online counselling in Scarborough.
Can I find a therapist near me in Scarborough if it’s virtual?
Yes! Our online therapy in Scarborough allows you to connect from anywhere in the city.
Are your therapists trauma-informed?
Absolutely. Each licensed psychotherapist in Scarborough is trained in trauma-informed care.
Can I see a therapist in Scarborough who speaks my first language?
Very likely. Scarborough is one of the most linguistically diverse parts of Canada, and our team works in 14+ languages including Tamil, Mandarin, Cantonese, Urdu, Hindi, Farsi and Arabic. Describing what is happening in the language you think in changes the pace of the work — you are not translating your own experience before you can begin.
Do you offer therapy for newcomers and first-generation families in Scarborough?
Yes. A great deal of what we see in Scarborough sits at the intersection of settlement and family — the pressure of rebuilding a career, the gap between parents and children raised here, and grief for people and places left behind. Our clinicians are trained in post-migration stress rather than treating it as ordinary anxiety.
My parents don’t believe in therapy. Can you still help?
This comes up constantly, and it is not a reason to stay stuck. Many clients begin without telling family, and some later bring a parent in once the work has a shape. A therapist who understands the cultural weight of that decision will not push you to disclose before you are ready.
Is online therapy in Scarborough private if my household is busy?
Privacy is a genuine obstacle in a full house. Sessions can be taken from a car, a walk, or a quiet room at a set time, and your therapist will plan around it with you. Headphones and a scheduled slot solve it for most people. If it cannot be solved, say so early and we will find a workable time.
