We ask that everyone have a credit card or visa debit on file, for situations like late cancels/no shows or virtual appointments. This makes things easier on our end.

Forms and Appointment Reminders:

At the time of booking, you will receive forms (intake information, consent to service and credit card form). These forms are required before your session, as they are helpful for your therapist to ensure things run smoothly for you upon your session. We would love for these to be completed at least 24 hours before your session.

We will also send you email reminders 48 hours before your appointment and text reminders 24 hours before. *If this is not something you would like to have, please let Stephanie know*

​

Payment - Payment is required before the session with your therapist. Payment can be received via e-transfer to bestkindcounselling@gmail.com or via credit card on file. We will then process your payment and send you a receipt via email.

​

Insurance – We direct bill Blue Cross only. It is your responsibility to ensure your insurance covers the therapist you are seeing. It is also your responsibility to know the limits of your insurance. We are happy to help with any information you may need about your therapist’s designation. Each insurance plan is different, and there may be a co-pay required. We will let you know how much is left owing at the time of your session.

​
