Family members can be in different locations if needed due to the use of ZOOM. 

Tanya Hansen is an experienced video/telephonic counsellor and has been providing video and telephonic counselling for 6 years (pre-COVID-19). Most clients give the feedback that video counselling in particular feels as effective as in-person and once COVID-19 restrictions are lifted, would prefer to continue either using video only or a blended approach where they would prefer some video and some in-person depending upon weather conditions in the winter and the convenience and reduced barriers in terms of time, distance, and childcare, which can sometimes restrict the ability to access counselling therapy.

Beginning June 1, 2022 optional in-person visits will be available for initial sessions and once per month for couples, and for families (available at Okotoks location - Mondays and Tuesdays - limit of 3 people, including therapist - due to COVID 19 restrictions). Limited in-person sessions are available, upon request for private/self-referred clients at the Okotoks office on Mondays and Tuesdays with limited evening appointments available. All other sessions will be online only until COVID restrictions are fully lifted. For your comfort and convenience, all sessions may be held online indefinitely.


Billing/Insurance
Tanya Hansen Therapy offers DIRECT BILLING through Alberta Blue Cross, Green Shield. Please note, that there may be a co-pay depending upon your specific plan, payable via Credit Card (my assistant can easily set this up for you or e-transfer to: tanyahansen@shaw.ca). 

As of October 19, 2020, it has come to our attention that unfortunately at this time, Telus eHealth does not provide direct billing for sessions with Registered Provisional Psychologists or other therapists. (Registered Provisional Psychologists are still covered but you have to pay the full session cost up front then get reimbursed later from your insurance provider). We are continuing to work with various extended health care benefit carriers for direct billing to serve you better. Please remember, it is the client’s responsibility to know their coverage limits, and to personally pay fees beyond their coverage limits, but we are happy to assist you in the process wherever possible.

As of April 15, 2021, Tanya Hansen Therapy was accepted to be able to provide direct billing through theclaimsxchange for clients with Equitable Life and with The Cooperators Insurance - please note, that there may be a co-pay depending upon your specific plan, payable via Credit Card (my assistant can easily set this up for you or e-transfer to:
tanyahansen@shaw.ca. 

Please also note that you may be eligible for EFAP/EAP (Employee Family Assistance Program) which offers direct billing - you may call your EFAP/EAP program and request Tanya Hansen to be your provider (i.e. Homewood Health, Arete, Optima)
If you are unsure if you have an EFAP program through your workplace or educational institution, please call your employer, HR, or student services to find out if this is available to you. Note: many post-secondary educational institutions do offer between 3-12 sessions of counselling for students, and many people have this benefit, and are unaware of it.
NOTE: If we discover through the course of the initial session that you might be eligible for this service, we will provide the initial session at our normal cost (we may be able to submit all or part of the fee through direct billing if applicable) and/or provide an insurance receipt.  If we have the phone number available, we will provide you with the number to call to your EFAP - this is to benefit you, the client, in obtaining the maximum number of sessions at the lowest cost, which is even more important during COVID. We're here to help in this process wherever possible.

​

Services may be covered in full or in part by your health insurance or employee benefit plan. Please check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions:
  • Do I have mental health insurance benefits? Which professionals are covered?

  • Is there a limit to the coverage amount per therapy session? Or do I have to pay in full and be reimbursed?
  • Is a professional or physician-directed referral required?
  • Do I have access to a low or no cost Employee Assistance Program? If yes, how many sessions?

Payment 
Cash, debit, e-transfer, and Mastercard or Visa are accepted for payment. Direct billing may be available when permitted by your insurance provider - see above for more info.
