Therapy Tailored to Your Needs

Individual Therapy at Yilea

Individual Therapy

There are many challenges we face as individuals while navigating several life decisions, systemic structures, and barriers.

Couples Therapy

Couples Therapy

Human interactions rely heavily on relationships. Relationships make up a tremendous part of our support system so Yiléa Therapy aids with keeping partnerships alive.

Family Therapy

Family Therapy

Family therapy can include caregivers, children, youths, and extended family members, depending on the family’s needs and goals.

At Yilea Therapy Services, we provide compassionate, client-centered therapy grounded in evidence-based practice, cultural safety, and emotional well-being. Our services are provided virtually in Ontario and Alberta, making it easier to connect with the right therapist. We use evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, Narrative therapy, Solution-Focused Brief intervention, and Gottman Method for couples’ therapy.

Client Testimonials

Before signing on with Sharon, I spoke with many other therapists in an attempt to find someone who would truly understand, relate to, and offer meaningful insight into what I was experiencing at the time. From the moment I spoke with Sharon, I knew she was the right fit. It’s easy to find someone who will listen, but it’s much harder to find someone who can objectively and constructively guide you in a positive way; someone who truly understands and can interpret the nuances of what you’re expressing. Today, I recommend Sharon to almost everyone I know because I genuinely believe she can help others the same way she has helped me. She deserves to help more people, and more people deserve the kind of support she provides. Best decision ever!!
Feedback 1
I’d like to start of by saying my experience working with Sharon has been life changing. I started therapy because I was in a depression and my nurse practitioner recommended talk therapy. I was adamant about having a black female therapist. Sharon has provided guidance about everything from friendships and relationships, familial affairs, work dilemmas and financial advice. I look forward to my appointments with Sharon because she pushes me to be honest with myself. She allows me to let my guard down and feel safe expressing my emotions. She had helped me to mend relationships and end others. Sharon has great advice from tv shows to books. I appreciate all we have worked on and I look forward to continuing my journey with her this new year!

Frequently asked questions

How can I book an appointment?

You can book an appointment by clicking on book an appointment and selecting the service that is tailored to your need.

Direct billing allows us to submit your insurance claims directly to your benefits providers on your behalf. This means you may only be responsible for paying any portion not covered by your plan, such as co-payments or remaining balances.

Direct billing is available for select extended health benefits and plans and is based on your individual insurance coverage, policy terms, and annual limits. We recommend that clients confirm their coverage details with their insurance provider before their appointment.

While we handle claim submissions, clients remain responsible for:

  • Any fees not covered by insurance.
  • Co-payments or deductibles.
  • Services that exceed plan limits.
  • Payments for uncovered amounts are due at the time of service.

If your insurance provider does not support direct billing, we will provide a detailed receipt so you can submit your claim directly for reimbursement.
At Yilea Therapy Services, our goal is to make therapy accessible, ensure transparent billing, provide client-centered care, and offer accessible mental health services. Our direct billing option helps remove financial barriers so you can focus on your healing and wellbeing.

Most of our services are covered by insurance, a receipt will be provided to you at the end of session and the receipt can be used to get reimbursed by your insurance provider.
