Yes, absolutely. Ruh will help match you with a therapist who best fits your needs, preferences, and goals through a personalized therapist matching form.

The matching form takes into account what you’re looking for support with, your preferences, and each therapist’s areas of specialization so you can be connected with someone who is a strong fit for your care.

You can also call +1 416-639-5993 to be matched with a therapist over the phone by the Ruh Client Care team.

Ruh offers a financial assistance program for clients who do not have insurance coverage and are unable to afford the full cost of therapy.

If you have extended health benefits, Ruh therapists may also be covered by your insurance plan, and Ruh will provide a receipt after each session that you can submit for reimbursement. You can also send your insurance policy to hello@ruhcare.com, and the team can help guide you through the process.

After you submit the matching form, you will be matched with a therapist who is a strong fit for your care, based on your needs and preferences. You’ll then be able to book your first session with your recommended therapist directly in their calendar.
