✔ Eligible for insurance (Ontario residents only):

These services are delivered in a clinical psychotherapy framework and fall under Cheryl’s MSW/RSW designation:

• 1:1 Counselling Sessions (50 minutes)

• Jungian/Depth Counselling sessions

• Dreamwork sessions with a clinical focus, such as

  • exploring subconscious material

  • emotional processing

  • identifying patterns and defenses

  • trauma-informed integration

  • symbolic or archetypal themes connected to distress

• Shadow work conducted within counselling sessions, including

  • exploring rejected parts

  • parts-work and internal conflict

  • pattern identification

  • trauma-related shadow material

  • relational shadow dynamics

  • emotional, cognitive, and behavioral integration

If you plan to submit your clinical dreamwork or shadow work session to insurance, please book under “Jungian Counselling.”
This ensures the session is framed and documented as clinical psychotherapy.

These offerings are non-clinical, educational, reflective, or personal/spiritual growth-oriented, even though they may be deeply meaningful:

• Dreamwork sessions booked outside the counselling framework

• Shadow work workshops, courses, or circles

• Journaling guidance

• Creative/inner work processes

• Mentorship or intuitive guidance sessions

• Online courses (self-paced or live)

• Workshops (live or recorded)

• Group circles (dream circles, journaling circles, seasonal gatherings)

• Community or personal development offerings

Participants receive a general purchase receipt, but these offerings cannot be billed to extended health plans.

Yes. Cheryl offers non-clinical sessions (dreamwork, journaling, shadow exploration, creative symbolic work) internationally.

However, only counselling provided to Ontario residents is eligible for insurance reimbursement.

Courses and workshops are educational and experiential, not psychotherapy.
Even when they involve inner-work, reflection, or depth content, they do not fall under a clinical designation.

Cheryl cannot issue counselling (MSW/RSW) receipts for:

• Journaling: Writing to the Center of Who You Are (9-week program)

• Dreamwork Foundations

• Shadow Work Workshops or Retreats

• Creative/Intuitive Workshops

• Monthly Journaling Circle

• Dream Circles

• Seasonal Circles

• Any online or self-led course

• Group programs that are not designated therapy groups

A general purchase receipt will be provided, but these programs cannot be billed to insurance.

Special note about the 9-Week Journaling Transformational Course

While deeply reflective and supportive, this program is not a psychotherapy group and therefore:

• ❌ cannot be billed to insurance

• ❌ cannot receive MSW/RSW counselling receipts

Participants may, however, book 1:1 counselling sessions during or after the program, which are eligible for insurance.

Coverage varies widely.
Before booking, please confirm whether your plan includes:

➡️ “Counselling with a Registered Social Worker (M.S.W., R.S.W.)”

You can choose:

• Counselling (eligible for insurance, Ontario residents)

• Non-clinical dreamwork/shadow/journaling sessions (global)

• A blended session

Blended sessions are billed as counselling only when the primary focus is clinical, such as:

• emotional processing

• identifying patterns or defences

• working with subconscious material in a therapeutic way

• trauma-informed care

• inner–outer alignment

• integrating shadow aspects

Cheryl will help you decide which format best fits your needs and intentions.

Yes — a general receipt is provided for all services.

However, dreamwork, shadow work, or journaling sessions are only insurance-eligible when booked under clinical counselling (Counselling or Jungian Counselling) and when the session’s focus is psychotherapeutic in nature.

Shadow work is a depth-psychology process of exploring the parts of yourself that operate outside conscious awareness—repressed emotions, patterns, beliefs, and protective responses. Through this work, you integrate these parts with compassion, reducing internal conflict and increasing self-understanding.

Shadow work brings unconscious patterns into awareness, allowing you to respond with choice rather than habit. This creates space for emotional clarity, healthier relationships, and a more grounded sense of self.

They overlap but are not identical.
Shadow work focuses on unconscious themes and patterns; trauma work focuses on nervous system healing and processing overwhelming experiences.
Both approaches can be safely integrated in counselling.

No. Shadow work meets you where you are.
You only need curiosity and a willingness to explore gently.
We move slowly, safely, and at a pace that feels right for you.
