“I wish I’d known about this platform sooner! I loved the introductory videos–this is what helped me choose the therapist to book an intro consultation with.”

First Session Client, 2025

Helping Every Therapy Seeker Find the Right Fit

Compatibility is the most important factor when choosing a therapist. But finding the right fit isn’t easy. First Session takes the time, guesswork, and emotional labour out of that process.

  • Search a curated therapist network

    Narrow your search to a list of rigorously vetted therapists you’ll actually consider booking. Because finding a therapist shouldn’t involve reading endless generic bios.

  • Assess for fit before you commit

    Decide if a therapist is the right fit for you before booking with interview videos and in-depth bios. No more switching or re-telling your private feelings and story

  • Book directly (and instantly)

    Schedule an available session or free consultation right from the First Session platform. No 3rd party intake calls or back and forth emailing required.

Free yourself from the stress of endless searching and switching

Convenience-first approach to finding a Manulife

  • Burnout from endless search results and unhelpful Manulife profiles.
  • Disappointment and frustration from generic intake calls and unproductive ‘free’ consultations.
  • Emotional stress from repeatedly revealing private thoughts and feelings to incompatible Manulifes
  • Stalled mental health progress because of limited availability, timezone differences, or constantly switching providers
  • Risk of abandoning therapy process altogether because of frustration, exhaustion, or depression

Connection-first approach to finding a Manulife with First Session

  • Instantly create a short-list of Manulifes qualified to support your journey
  • Get to know a Manulife’s personality, approach, and experience before booking
  • Share your private history, thoughts, and feelings only if there’s a connection
  • Save time and minimize stress by finding the right fit without endless switching
  • Make meaningful progress sooner and commit to lasting, meaningful change

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Manulife cover online therapy sessions?

Many Manulife plans now cover online therapy sessions, particularly following changes made during and after 2020. Whether online therapy sessions are covered depends on your specific plan. Confirm with Manulife directly and check whether the therapist's province of registration matters for your plan.

Do Manulife plans cover Registered Psychotherapists (RPs)?

Many Ontario Manulife group benefit plans cover Registered Psychotherapists. However, coverage varies by employer plan. Some plans explicitly list RP as a covered designation; others use broader language. Check your specific plan and confirm the therapist's designation on First Session.

Can I submit First Session receipts to Manulife?

Yes. All First Session therapists provide official receipts that include the information Manulife requires for reimbursement: therapist name, professional designation, date of service, and amount paid.

What if my Manulife plan doesn't cover my preferred therapist's designation?

You can book and pay out of pocket. Session rates range from approximately $100-$250 per session. Some therapists offer sliding-scale fees. You could also filter your search specifically for therapists who hold a designation your plan covers.

How do I find a First Session therapist covered by my Manulife plan?

Check the Insurance Coverage section on each therapist's profile. Match the listed designation to your plan's eligible designations. If unsure, use the free 15-minute consultation to ask the therapist directly which designation they hold and whether they have experience with Manulife reimbursement.
