Precautions when sending an email
Ordinary e-mails are not secure; an e-mail between two gmail accounts is encrypted in transit, but goes through the gmail servers in the US. Also, be aware that if you check your email at work it can potentially be read by your boss. If you need to ask a question that involves sensitive personal information it is best to protect it. To password-protect a Word document in Windows, go to file>info>protect document; OR for more security, get a free ProtonMail account and email Beth's ProtonMail address, beth.mares. (Let her know via phone message or her regular email that you have sent it, as she doesn't check protonmail daily.)

Please note that phone calls and phone messages are not totally secure.

Doctors offices may leave a message at 416-699-5515. Please speak slowly and clearly.

Making an appointment

First look over the application form and privacy policy to make sure that you are eligible for the service and comfortable with the arrangements. You will need Adobe Reader to view and fill in pdf documents. When/if you are filling in the form, first download it and save it to your computer; fill it in, save it again, and attach it to an email. Please note that your form is an official medical record, so for couples each person must fill out a separate form.)

Then e-mail Beth's gmail, beth.toronto, putting COUNSELLING in the subject line. If requesting an appointment, tell her about the times and days you are usually available. Beth will tell you the current fees. (If you are Indigenous, you may be eligible for free therapy.) You do not need a referral.

Once a time has been arranged, fill out and send the application form(s) and an interac payment to Beth's gmail, beth.toronto via your online banking. (Log in to your page on your bank's website; look for a link to interac.) Send them promptly if you can to nail down the time slot.

For future sessions, payment needs to be made 48 hours ahead for office appointments and 24 hours ahead for online appointments.
