prstoronto.com - Psychotherapy Referral Service

How does it work?

The PRS referral procedure is designed to provide you with a psychotherapist suited to your individual needs, personality and life experience (see Couple Counselling for information on couples referral).

Our goal is to make this a friendly, calming and informative experience for you, so we use a simple 3 step procedure:

1. Contact Us

Call us anytime – day or night – at 416.920.0655 and leave a message on our voice mail. Alternatively you can send us an email at [email protected] .

We'll call you back within 24 hours and arrange an interview at a time that's convenient for you. The purpose of the interview is to discuss your needs.

2. Interviews

The interview will help determine who is the best psychotherapist suited for you, and we'll provide you with the therapist's phone number so you can make an appointment. After seeing the therapist, if for any reason you feel it's not a good match, we'll be happy to provide you with another contact.

It's that straightforward.

Please be assured that all telephone calls, personal interviews and therapy sessions are strictly confidential.

3. Fees

There is a fee of $45 for the personal interview and referral.

PRS refers to psychotherapists whose fees are in the range of $80-$110 per session.

Fees are not covered by OHIP. Fees paid to PRS are for the interview and referral only. The therapist to whom you are referred is responsible for the ongoing provision of psychotherapy. You are advised to discuss therapy fees and other therapy arrangements with the therapist to whom you are referred.
