Imagine anxiety like a small bubble, that we see and can recognize is there (ex. what if this happens in the future). Over time, that bubble can expand and start to limit your daily living. It's important to have a therapist that specializes in anxiety. You want to find a therapist who can understand and identify safety behaviours that are holding you back! We work with a wide range of anxieties including phobias (e.g. emetophobia, driving phobia), generalized anxiety, OCD, health anxiety, panic attacks, and social anxiety.

We all confront difficult challenges in life. We all go through times when our deepest fears and insecurities surface and consume our thoughts and actions, while our strengths and values fade out of focus and out of reach. We may be flooded with unwanted and worrisome thoughts; experience intense negative emotions; feel lonely and isolated from others, become increasingly unmotivated and unproductive; and develop difficulties sleeping, concentrating, and finding fulfillment in life. If you are going through a period of suffering, this is part of what makes you human.

BlueCross BlueShield Counsellors
BlueCross BlueShield insurance provides coverage for behavioral health services in Kingston. BCBS HMO-style plans cover in-network providers while PPO plans provide a benefit that can be applied to either in-network or out-of-network providers. Blue Cross Blue Shield may not require a referral from your primary care practitioner for covered behavioral health services.

Some BCBS Counsellors in Kingston only have room for a few insurance slots in their schedule, so it's important to confirm in-network availability when you book your first appointment.

Blue Cross Blue Shield companies are independently owned and community-based healthcare insurers.

Here’s a link to more information on how insurance works to cover behavioral health benefits.
