Do I need a referral to see a psychologist or therapist at Wonderwise?

No referral is required. Families can book a consultation directly with our Toronto psychology clinic. Our intake coordinator will help match you with the right therapist or psychologist based on your child’s needs and goals.

What ages do you work with?

Wonderwise Psychology supports children ages 4–12, teens ages 13–18, and their parents or caregivers. We tailor therapy and assessments to each developmental stage using age-appropriate, evidence-based approaches

What issues do you help with?

Our therapists and psychologists support children and teens with anxiety, emotional regulation, ADHD, autism, learning differences, mood challenges, academic stress, social difficulties, and family transitions. We also work closely with parents and schools when helpful.

What’s the difference between therapy and a psychological assessment?

Therapy focuses on building coping skills, emotional understanding, and behavioural strategies over time. A psychological assessment provides a comprehensive evaluation of learning, attention, social-emotional functioning, or developmental needs, along with detailed recommendations for home and school.

How long does therapy usually last?

The length of therapy varies depending on each child or teen’s goals. Some families benefit from short-term, focused support, while others choose ongoing therapy. Your psychologist or therapist will regularly review progress and adjust the plan as needed.

Are services covered by insurance?

Many extended health insurance plans cover services provided by registered psychologists. Coverage varies by provider and plan, so we recommend checking with your insurer. Receipts are provided after each session for reimbursement purposes.

Do you offer virtual or online therapy?

Yes. Wonderwise Psychology offers secure virtual therapy for families across Toronto and Ontario, as well as in-person sessions at our Yorkdale clinic. Both options provide the same level of care, privacy, and professional support.

How do I get started?
