On this page you will find answers to common questions.
Do you have a question you would like to ask? I am committed to providing patients with the best care and experience possible. There is no wrong question when it comes to mental health. See the answers to the FAQs below and don't hesitate to contact me if you have any additional questions.
DO YOU OFFER INSURANCE RECEIPT?
Yes! I offer you receipts for your reimbursements with your insurance. I also offer recites if desired for tax refunds.
The only insurance company I don't do business with is Industrial Alliance.
Depending on your insurance, it is even possible that you live in the United States or France and that the art therapy sessions with me are covered. The important thing is that your contract with your insurers includes a naturopathic section.
DO YOU HAVE TO BE “GOOD” AT ART TO DO ART THERAPY?
No! You don't have to be good at art to do art therapy.
The goal is to express yourself, not to make something beautiful. It is the client who knows what line, color, shape, texture, space, movement means to them; the art therapist helps to support the person to go further in their physical and mental health goals.
