Alongside the therapeutic process, there are also a few practical considerations that help support consistency and care.

Evening appointments

Evening sessions are held for clients who are able to attend consistently.

If schedules shift or sessions are frequently moved, we may explore a different time that better supports both your care and the rhythm of the studio.

What if I don’t feel ready?

You don’t have to be fully ready.

Therapy is a space where readiness can grow—but showing up, even gently, is part of the process.

Insurance + Coverage

Beautiful Mind does not offer direct billing.

After each session, you’ll receive a detailed receipt that you can submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement.

Coverage for counselling services depends on your individual benefits plan. Many plans include coverage for Canadian Certified Counsellors (C.C.C.), though this can vary.

If you’re unsure, you may wish to check with your provider in advance.

What happens in the first session?

The first session is a space to begin understanding what’s bringing you in, at your pace.

We’ll explore what’s been going on, what feels important, and what you’re hoping for, without pressure to share everything all at once.

You don’t need to have the “right” words or a clear starting point.

Together, we begin to make sense of your experience and gently identify what support might look like moving forward.

Do I need to commit to ongoing sessions?

No.

Some women come for a brief season of support. Others choose to continue longer.

We’ll talk together about what feels helpful and sustainable for you. There’s no pressure to commit beyond what feels right.
