Provider title
Does the plan cover a Registered Psychotherapist, and does it cover a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)?
Fees, insurance & claims
Manulife therapy coverage in Ontario.
Your Manulife plan may cover psychotherapy, but the Manulife name alone does not tell you what will be reimbursed. Check your own plan for the clinician’s exact title, the amount available, and any limit per session. We are not affiliated with Manulife and cannot guarantee coverage.
A quick way to check before you book.
Sign in to your Manulife plan member account and open your benefits booklet. If the wording is unclear, contact member services with your clinician's name and registration title.
Here is a question you can use.
“I am considering psychotherapy with [clinician name], a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). Does my plan cover this provider title? How much would it reimburse for a $160 session, and how much coverage do I have left?”
Use the title and fee shown on your chosen clinician's profile. If the appointment is for your child, ask about their coverage as a dependent.
Manulife's group benefits help page explains how to check your coverage and submit a claim. You can also find your clinician's profile before contacting the insurer.
What is specific to Manulife.

Does Manulife cover a Registered Psychotherapist?
Many Manulife plans do. Some do not. The only reliable answer is your booklet or a call to member services. Ask for the exact title, including whether Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) is covered.
