Couple’s Counselling (per 50 minutes) $250
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (80 minutes) $330
Sana Psychological can offer direct billing services HOWEVER, please be advised that the specific insurers available depend on the clinician and their credentials.
If direct billing is available with your plan and provider, you will need to check with your plan to see what coverage is offered, if any, and you may need to pay out of pocket for services and submit for reimbursement from your insurance carrier.
*Please be advised that SunLife does not currently accept direct billing for any psychological services. If you have your benefits plan through them, you will need to submit for reimbursement yourself.
A receipt is provided after each session for submission to your insurance plan for reimbursement if we are unable to do direct billing.
Did you know that therapy is an expense that you can claim on your tax return? Hang onto your receipts to include in your tax documents at the end of the taxation year if you are not using benefits.
The Psychologist’s Association of Alberta has a recommended fee schedule for services. The rates at Sana Psychological are consistent with this.
Process
Appointments can be booked online anytime through the scheduling portal.
Please take time to read through the website and some additional online information, including the clinician’s online Psychology Today profiles, and Sana Psychological’s Instagram and Facebook feeds to familiarize yourself with our approach and services. We encourage returning clients to schedule multiple appointments to ensure the frequency you are looking for.
Payment types accepted at this time are: Cash, e-transfer, and credit card. Direct billing may be available depending on your insurance provider and clinician.
Sana Psychological wants to thank you for taking the time to consider us for being a part of your journey of self-improvement and development.
