Frequently Asked Questions

​

How do I pay for sessions?

Sessions can be paid for with e-transfer or a credit card. Session fees are due at the beginning of session.

Are receipts provided to submit to insurance?

 

Yes! Receipts are provided for each session. Please check if your insurance covers Registered Clinical Counsellors (RCC) or Canadian Certified Counsellors (CCC). I offer direct billing for the following insurance providers: SSQ, GreenShield, Telus Health, SunLife, and the Crime Victim Assistance Program (CVAP).​

Where are sessions held?

Sessions are currently being held over the secure virtual platform Jane.  

What are your hours of operation?

Sessions are offered on from Monday and Wednesday between 12pm and 6pm and Friday between 2pm and 4pm.

What is your cancellation policy? 

Late cancellations reduce my ability to support those who are in need of this service. As such, I have a firm 24-hour cancellation policy. Appointments cancelled within 24 hours of session will be charged the full session fee.

Attachment focused talk therapy

Informed by psychodynamic therapy, narrative therapy, existential therapy, and others, I approach the therapeutic relationship from a place of compassionate curiosity.

EMDR therapy

Eye-Movement Desensitization Reprocessing therapy is a well researched trauma therapy that utilizes a dual awareness of the past and the present to reduce trauma symptoms. This therapy may be the right fit if you find yourself impacted by ongoing trauma symptoms such as nightmares, flashbacks, hyper vigilance or feeling like you are "stuck in the past."

Ocean Johnston Counselling operates on the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
