Services

Unfortunately we cannot direct bill. Upon receipt of payment upfront you will be emailed a receipt with all of the necessary information to put through a claim to your insurance/benefits providers. Please be sure to look into your specific benefits package to see what is accepted, as some providers have strict adherences for what type of therapist can provide the service for coverage (ie Registered Psychologist, Canadian Certified Counsellor, Professional Registered Counsellor, Clinical Counsellor, etc).

Teresa Ferrario is certified with the Canadian Professional Counselling Association (CPCA) as a Master Practitioner in Clinical Counselling (MPCC) #4847

This stands for Master Practitioner of Clinical Counselling. Members of the Canadian Professional Counsellors Association (CPCA) must complete foundational registration in order to obtain membership, and then can apply for a master level designation. The MPCC title represents a significant body of education and experience earned and recognized in clinical practice. Thus the MPCC practicing clinician holds an equivalent to graduate degree education and experience. To have an MPCC designation means:

• The therapist has completed 1250 hours of clinical practice hours.
• The therapist has completed 250 hours of clinical supervision.
• The therapist has a minimum of 5 years of active clinical practice in the past 8 years.
• The therapist has a minimum of 60 hours of advanced education specific to the practice of therapy.
• The therapist completes continuing education and training each year.
• The therapist abides by the CPCA code of ethics.
• Many insurance plans will reimburse for sessions with a MPCC.

I offer services in home, your community, or my counselling office; I'd be happy to discuss what works best for you and adapt to your needs.
