Appointments

New Patients

Woods Psychological Services patient roomAre you a new patient looking to book an appointment? Please contact Ron by e-mail to ensure he is accepting new clients. If you are interested in exploring therapy with Woods Psychological Services you need to speak with Ron by email at ron@woodspsychologicalservices.ca and include the following:

  • Your name
  • Telephone number
  • Email address
  • Brief description of your concerns that you would like to address in therapy.

Please Note:  I do not have any evening Availability.

When Ron receives your email, someone from Woods Psychological will contact you in approximately 2 business days to discuss your needs, goals, and concerns that are bringing you to therapy. If the match between therapist and client seems to be agreeable to both then an appointment can be scheduled together. After the appointment is scheduled an intake form will be sent to be filled out and brought back for the first session. There will also be an intake form at the reception desk to fill out for those who are unable to complete the form and bring it in with them. In this case, clients need to arrive 15 minutes early to fill out the form.

After speaking with Ron and agreeing to work together, clients are able to schedule appointment times that work using the online schedule.

Current & Former Patients

Please find below our Appointment Scheduler.  This allows you to schedule appointments yourself to suit your own needs (which you and Ron can agree upon).  Please note that appointments are made in 50-minute increments. This means the 10 minutes can be used at the beginning or end of the hour and therefore sessions may start as much as 10 minutes late for this reason. Therapy does involve dealing with serious, and at times, life-threatening issues that do not always neatly wrap up at the end of the 50-minute hour. This means please understand that at times you may need to wait a bit for your session. Please know that I am aware that everyone’s time is valuable and I am acutely aware of the next person waiting and I am doing my best to conclude in a healthy and professional manner. 

For those who prefer to conduct therapy through the medium of Telehealth, we have two options, Google Meet or the free mobile phone app called Signal Private Messenger. Through this application, clients are able to phone, text message, and have secure video correspondence. Signal Messenger is HIPAA compliant and is secure to use whereas FaceTime and Skype are not. Google Meet is equally user-friendly and can be used through a computer or any mobile device. Google Meet sessions will begin with me sending an invite when I am ready to conduct the session. The advantage of Google Meet is having a wider screen for both parties, more stable performance, and less inconvenience in needing to hold a mobile device.
