A practicing psychologist is trained to assess and diagnose problems in thinking, feeling and behaviour, and to help people overcome, or manage, these problems using a variety of treatments or psychotherapies. - Canadian Psychological Association (CPA)
Most insurance companies cover psychological services in part or in totality (often as benefits associated to work). They are not covered by the OHIP or Québec’s plan. Clients can contact their (or their spouse’s or parents’) insurance representative in case they do not know the amount for which they are covered. Clients who request an assessment can receive an estimate of the duration and of the total cost by calling the clinic.
