How much does counselling cost in Ottawa?

The median listed price is $180, taken from 1,081 priced services at 125 clinics in Ottawa. Half of them fall between $160 and $205. 2,369 services here publish no price at all and are not in that figure. These are the clinics’ own published rates.

Can I get a same-day appointment in Ottawa?

Right now, yes: 386 openings are still free today at 35 clinics, out of the 169 clinics we can currently check. We could not check 3 other clinics in Ottawa, so there may be more. Openings are read from each clinic’s own calendar and kept regularly up to date, rather than checked live, so confirm with the clinic before you travel.

Which Ottawa clinics direct-bill my insurer?

17 clinics of the 172 clinics whose billing page we have read in Ottawa state they submit a claim for you. Public funders named most often: Motor vehicle claim (1) — those pay the clinic instead of you. Patient plans named most often: Extended health plans (15), Blue Cross (2), Medavie Blue Cross (1) — claiming on one of those spends your own annual maximum. These are the clinics’ own words, repeated — confirm with them before you book, because whether a particular claim goes through is between the clinic and the payer.
