Booking FAQs

Is direct billing available through James Barlow with my insurance, or what’s the payment process like?

Yes — direct billing is available for clients whose insurance providers support it through TELUS eClaims. We work with a wide range of insurers including Manulife, Canada Life, Desjardins, Blue Cross, and many others. If direct billing isn’t available through your plan, payment can be made via credit card, e-transfer, or PayPal after each session.

Once payment is completed, we’ll email you a PDF receipt with all the details needed for reimbursement — such as the therapist’s name, designation, license number, and address — which you can submit to your insurance provider.

You’re the best judge of who feels like the right fit. If something about a therapist resonates with you or feels right, trust your instincts. A great next step is to book a free consultation with one of our intake coordinators to explore your needs and see if James Barlow might be a good match.
