How do I know if I need therapy?
You might benefit from therapy if you're experiencing persistent feelings of sadness or anxiety, difficulty managing stress, changes in sleep or appetite, relationship struggles, or feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges. Many Calgarians seek therapy during life transitions like career changes, relationship issues, or coping with Alberta's long winters. Therapy isn't just for "serious" problems—it's helpful for anyone wanting to improve their mental health, work through challenges, or develop better coping skills. If you're asking yourself "do I need therapy?", that self-awareness is often a sign that professional support could be beneficial.
Does insurance cover therapy in Calgary?
Yes, most extended health insurance plans in Alberta cover psychology and therapy services. Coverage typically ranges from $500 to $3,000+ per year depending on your plan. Many Calgary employers offer Employee Assistance Programs (EAP) that provide free short-term counseling. We accept direct billing for most major insurance providers including Alberta Blue Cross, Manulife, Sunlife, Canada Life, Equitable Life, and Green Shield. If you're with an Alberta-based employer, we can help you verify your coverage and maximize your benefits. Contact our Calgary office to confirm your insurance details.
Do you offer in-person therapy in Calgary or online sessions?
Yes, both! We offer in-person therapy at our Calgary office on Macleod Trail SW with free parking, plus secure virtual therapy throughout Alberta. Same quality care, your choice of format. Book your free 15-minute consultation to decide what works best for you.
