At Vital Minds Psychotherapy we believe that everyone should be able to access high quality Psychotherapy and mental health services. Therapy can be expensive and if you don’t have insurance or have little coverage, we are here to support.
Our highly trained Psychotherapists offer low cost therapy specific to your financial situation or amount of insurance coverage to make sure you can complete a full treatment. Are you looking for a long term therapist but can’t afford it, we can make this possible!
We offer affordable therapy in Hamilton and online across Ontario to individuals, couples and families who are seeking financially accessible therapy services.
We will pair you up with a therapist that offers psychotherapy at a reduced or low cost rate that fits your specific finanical and mental health needs to ensure that you are getting the proper treatment without creating an extra financial burden.
The affordable therapy program is offered at a low cost with Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology students or one our fully liscened therapists that have low cost sliding scale spots available. Our interns are Registered Psychotherapist Qualifying therapsits, completing the final portion of their hours for their internship. They have completed specialized training in a wide range of evidence-based therapeutic modalities and are supervised by experienced Clinical Supervisors who specialize in a multitude of issues. Many of our interns also have extensive experience in the mental health field, health care, and frontline support, and provide high quality psychotherapy services.
Our affordable therapy program offers therapy at lower costs. Standard industry rates ranges from $150-$190 per session.
If you have insurance coverage, through our affordable therapy program we offer rates ranging from $80-$120 per session. For individuals who have less than $500 per calendar year we recommend inquiring about the low cost options through our affordable therapy program to maximize your insurance coverage and continue services at low cost.
If you are paying out of pocket and have limited finances, whether you are out of work, on disability, low income, what ever the case may be we are here to help! For individuals who cannot afford our affordable therapy rates we do have options for low cost therapy or “pay what you can” therapy services. These options can be discussed during the initial free consultation. You can speak to your therapist and agree to a rate that works for you depending on your budget.
For example: Your therapy budget is $200 per month but you need weekly therapy. In order to ensure consistently and efficacy of your therapy treatment plan (typically recommended weekly sessions for the first 8-12 weeks) your weekly rate would be $50 per session to accommodate your budget and treatment needs.
Our low cost rates are specifically tailored to your financial and treatment needs! Our ultimate goal is your well being and we are open to supporting your low costs requests on a case by case basis.
