Why InnerSight exists

A clinic built from lived experience.

InnerSight Psychotherapy was founded by Svetlana Antonyshyn after the devastating loss of her young son. That personal tragedy became a catalyst for a mission: to help others navigate pain and build lives worth living.

In her work, Svetlana saw two gaps in the mental health system. Family doctors hesitated to refer patients because of quality of care concerns. And clients who wanted healing without medication felt trapped in systems focused on pathology and diagnosis. InnerSight was built to solve both.

“Our promise is simple. Everyone feels seen, heard, and understood, and transformation isn’t just a promise. It’s a lived journey.”

How it actually works

It’s a conversation. That’s it.

People skip therapy because they don’t know what they’re walking into. Here’s exactly what happens, from the moment you book to the moment you decide if you’d like to come back.

  1. 1
    Free consult · 20 min

    Schedule your free consultation

    Book online or call (905) 553-9507 to arrange a free 20-minute call. You’ll briefly tell us what’s going on, and we’ll suggest a therapist or two we think would fit.

    Phone or videoUsually within 24 hours
  2. 2
    First session · 55 to 90 min

    Attend your first session

    Meet a trained therapist who will listen, ask about what brought you in, and match you with the right approach. First sessions run 55 to 90 minutes depending on the type of therapy. You don’t have to come with answers.

    From $180 per sessionMost plans cover a portion

    Start your healing process

    Continue weekly, every other week, or not at all. If the fit isn’t right, your records transfer to another therapist with your consent. No friction, no shame.

What we help with

28 challenges, plainly named.

If you don’t see it here, ask. We’ve heard most of it, and what we haven’t, we’ll point you to someone who has. Or browse everything we help with.

Our promise: we don’t pathologize. Your experience isn’t a disorder, it’s something you’re working through. We honour your humanity, not a diagnosis.

Therapeutic approaches

18 evidence-informed modalities, matched to you.

The method matters less than the match. Your therapist chooses an approach based on what you’re working through, not the other way around.

Fees & insurance

Transparent pricing.

Cost is the most common reason people stall on booking. We don’t want it to be the reason you don’t get help. Psychotherapy isn’t covered by OHIP, but most private plans in Ontario cover a portion of sessions with a Registered Psychotherapist, and you don’t need a referral to begin.

Coverage estimator

How far could your benefits go?

Pick your plan’s yearly maximum for a Registered Psychotherapist.

5sessions within your maximum
If your plan reimburses the full fee, your 70-minute assessment at $245 plus 4 sessions at $180 uses about $965 of your $1,000 maximum. Plans that pay a percentage, or cap each visit, leave you the rest of every fee.

An estimate, not a quote or a promise of coverage. Plans differ on the percentage reimbursed, per-visit limits, deductibles and which providers they recognize, so check your benefits booklet or ask your insurer about “Registered Psychotherapist” and “Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying).”

Insurance and direct billing

We bill Sun Life, Beneva (formerly SSQ) and Green Shield directly. With other plans, you pay at your session and submit the receipt for reimbursement.

  • Look for “Registered Psychotherapist” on your benefits page. That’s the line we fall under.
  • Coverage varies by plan. Unsure? Call your provider, or ask us. We’ve seen most plans.

Regulated, not self-declared

“Psychotherapist” is a protected title in Ontario. Our team are Registered Psychotherapists, accountable to a College with a public complaints process.

See every therapist’s registration

Supervised every month

Our therapists meet for clinical supervision every month, so the work stays accountable to someone other than the person doing it.

How we work

We show our sources

Where we describe what therapy can help with, we name the source and link it, from Statistics Canada and CAMH to peer-reviewed trials.

What we help with

Nothing locks you in

No referral needed. No contract, no package to buy. Fees are published up front, $180 for a 55-minute session. If the fit isn’t right, tell us and we’ll help you switch to another therapist on the team.

Quietly Googled

Questions real people ask before they call.

Plain answers to the things you’d rather not have to ask out loud. Still wondering? Call (905) 553-9507.

How do I know if I actually need therapy?

If you’re asking, that’s usually enough of a reason. You don’t need a diagnosis, and you don’t need a crisis. Therapy isn’t just for crisis, it’s for growth. You’re allowed to come in because something’s been heavy and you’d like to put it down for a bit.

What if I don’t click with my therapist?

Tell us, by email, through your portal, or to the therapist themselves. We’ll switch you, transfer your records with your consent, and you don’t have to explain yourself. The match matters more than the method.

Is online therapy as effective as in-person?

For many people, yes. A 2021 meta-analysis found that outcomes from live video therapy differed negligibly from in-person therapy (Fernandez et al., 2021, Clinical Psychology & Psychotherapy). Some kinds of work, like play therapy with young children, can be easier in person, and your therapist will say so up front.

Will I have to talk about my childhood?

Only if you want to. You’re in charge of the room. A good therapist will follow what’s useful. Sometimes that’s your week, sometimes that’s your family of origin, often neither.

How long does therapy take?

It varies. Some people come for 6 sessions to work through a specific thing. Others stay months or years. You decide as you go, and there’s no contract.

Is what I say really private?

Yes. We’re bound by the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). The only exceptions are if you tell us you’re about to hurt yourself or someone else, abuse of a minor or dependent adult, or a court subpoena.

What’s the difference between a psychotherapist, psychologist and psychiatrist?

A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who can prescribe. A psychologist holds a doctorate and can diagnose. A Registered Psychotherapist (RP), like us, is regulated by the CRPO and trained specifically in talk therapy. No medication, and no diagnostic labels needed to begin.

Do I need a referral?

No. Psychotherapy in Ontario doesn’t require a doctor’s referral. You can book a free 20-minute consultation directly with us.
