Pay-What-You-Can Therapy
At Stone Silo Counselling & Wellness, we believe in making mental health support accessible while providing exceptional care at every level. We offer pay-what-you-can therapy for certain therapists.
Pay-What-You-Can Therapy
We believe that taking care of your mental health is not based on whether you can afford it or not. Everyone deserves access to support, and that’s why we’ve created a Pay-What-You-Can model for sessions.
How It Works: It’s exactly as it sounds! You choose what you’re able to pay for your session. Some clients let us know in advance, some decide after their appointment, and others check in with us as their circumstances change. Wherever you’re at, that’s okay.
Pay what you can per session
Why Choose Our Therapists?
Our therapists are here to help with a variety of concerns, offering a safe and supportive space tailored to your needs.
Professional Expertise
Our pay-what-you-can option connects you with either a seasoned mental health professional or a student therapist supervised by a seasoned therapist. You will receive the same quality care and evidence-based treatment approaches that characterize excellent therapy.
Comprehensive Training
Our therapist holds advanced qualifications, including registration with professional regulatory bodies and graduate-level education. This ensures that “pay what you can” doesn’t mean compromised; you receive expert care that’s simply more accessible.
Evidence-Based Practice
Drawing from proven therapeutic modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and narrative therapy, our approach is grounded in research and tailored to your unique needs and goals.
Quality Care at Flexible Rates
This all depends on the benefits, but most benefit companies want a Master level clinician
Fresh Perspectives
Our Therapists bring current therapeutic approaches and techniques from their training, offering you access to contemporary mental health practices under appropriate guidance.
FAQs
Is my therapy still private and confidential?
Yes! Confidentiality is a cornerstone of our practice. Everything you discuss remains strictly private and protected by the same ethical and legal guidelines. For any supervised therapists, therapists work under the clinical supervision of Ezra Branderhorst (MSW Registered Social Worker). Any supervision discussions maintain your confidentiality and focus on ensuring you receive the best possible care.
How does supervision work with the Pay-What-You-Can option?
Your therapist collaborates closely with Ezra Branderhorst throughout your care. This means you’re getting the innovative approaches and current knowledge of a developing therapist, backed by Ezra’s years of experience and clinical wisdom. It’s like having a therapeutic team dedicated to your success, combining fresh ideas with proven expertise for comprehensive support.
How do I decide what to pay for the Pay-What-You-Can option?
There’s no formula or expectation. Consider what feels sustainable for you financially without causing stress. Some clients pay based on their session’s value to them, others on their current financial situation, and some adjust their contribution as circumstances change. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable with your decision.
What are the benefits?
Our Pay-What-You-Can option allows you to receive compassionate therapy while supporting someone’s journey to becoming a fully licensed therapist, with complete flexibility in what you contribute financially.
Is therapy covered under benefits?
This depends on your specific benefits plan. Coverage requirements vary between our therapists. We recommend checking with your provider about coverage for each type of service.
