Frequently Asked Questions
Are you "Registered"?
Yes. I am registered with the College of Psychologists of Ontario. Dr. Kris has been licensed to practice psychology autonomously in Ontario since 2001.
When students work in our practice, the receipts are made through Dr. Pryke.
Are you covered by OHIP?
No. The fees charged for psychological services are not covered by public health funding. However, many private extended health care benefits do cover some or all of the cost. Check with your provider.
What are your rates?
Effective September 2024 we charge $240.00 per hour for all direct and indirect therapy services. For services related to collaborative family law the rate is $275.00 per hour.
We are unable to provide any "sliding scale" at this time.
What are my payment options?
We only accept cheques, cash, or email transfers. We do not have the capability of accepting credit or debit cards. We do not submit invoices to insurance carriers. Getting reimbursed for services is your task. Payment is due at the time services are delivered.
Do you have a waiting list?
For therapy and consultation I can often get a new client in within 3 to 4 weeks depending upon your flexibility with appointment times. At times I am full and cannot accept new clients. The administrative assistant will let you know the current status when you make an inquiry.
Do I need a doctor's referral?
No. You may self-refer by calling the office at any time. You may need a referral from your physician to qualify for insurance coverage. Check with your provider.
