Frequently asked therapy questions
Is therapy free through U of T Health and Wellness?
Yes, to an extent. Insurance plans for U of T students cover between $100-$125 per session for up to 15 sessions per policy year. You can find therapists on First Session who offer sessions at $125 or less, or you can also reach out to a therapist offering sliding scale to explain your situation as a student and your covereage limits (see below).
Who is eligible for the U of T Health and Dental plan coverage?
The UTSU administers a Health & Dental Plan for all full-time undergraduate students at the St. George campus and eligible students at the Toronto School of Theology, providing some of the best mental health and dental coverage in Canada when compared to other student association plans.
Part-time students (enrolled in 2.5 or fewer full course equivalents for the Fall-Winter Sessions) are considered members of the APUS Plan.
How much coverage is provided to U of T students for counselling and therapy?
Full-time students (UTSU Plan) are covered for up to $100 per session for up to 15 visits per policy year.
Part-time students are covered for up to $125 per session for up to 15 visits per policy year.
What therapists and counsellors are covered for U of T students?
The UTSU plan for full-time U of T Students covers Psychologists, Masters of Social Work, Clinical Counsellors, and Licensed (i.e. Registered) Psychotherapists.
The APUS plan covers Psychologists, Clinical Counsellors, Registered Social Workers, and Registered Psychotherapists.
Can I see in-person and online therapists?
Yes. Through First Session, you can find both in-person therapists in Toronto (look for "In-Person" on their profile) and online therapists.
Will I need to pay out of pocket for therapy?
Yes. First Session charges each session directly to your credit card. Once each session occurs, and your card is charged, you will receive a PDF receipt to your email with all of the details you will need to get reimbursed (therapist name, license/designation, license number, address, etc). You can then submit the receipt to your insurance company for reimbursement.
How do I submit a claim for therapy sessions under the U of T insurance plans?
Is First Session affiliated with U of T?
No. First Session is an independent company and is not affiliated with the University of Toronto.
We created this page specifically to support U of T students, and all the information here has been carefully researched. The therapists listed are independent professionals whose sessions are eligible for reimbursement through your student health insurance.
How do I know if a therapist is a good fit?
You are the expert when it comes to knowing who is the right fit. Ensure you’ve watched the therapist video at the top of their profile, and see if you get a good feeling from the message and the energy they are putting out. If you feel drawn to speak with them, listen to your gut! Booking a free consultation is a great first step to asses fit.
