OHIP-Covered Counselling & Mental Healthcare

 

Congratulations on taking the first step toward better mental health

Keystone Counselling provides exceptional OHIP-covered mental healthcare and counselling to individuals, couples, families, and groups.

Benefits of having a physician as your therapist

Dr. Armaghan Nematullah is uniquely trained, qualified, and experienced as both a family doctor and a psychotherapist. This puts him in a unique position to be able to employ a more holistic, comprehensive approach to your and your family’s mental healthcare, including:

  • providing OHIP-covered psychotherapy and counselling services without the need for patients to pay out of pocket or use their private insurance benefits

  • ordering diagnostic tests like bloodwork and imaging, where indicated

  • sending referrals to specialists and other community mental healthcare supports

  • prescribing medication, where indicated

  • completing and certifying forms and paperwork for government benefits applications, insurance benefits applications, mental health-related WSIB claims, and more (patients will be responsible for payment when OHIP does not cover the cost)

we STARTED OFF as a small family medicine clinic

Keystone Medical Family Clinic first opened its doors in 2016. We served a small community of patients out of Brampton, Ontario and came to realize over time that our patients needed more than just medical advice; they desperately needed mental health support. This need became even more pronounced since the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dr. Nematullah has always taken a special interest in mental healthcare and counselling. After appreciating the great need for OHIP-covered psychotherapy within his small family practice, he began pursuing specialized training in mental healthcare and shifted the focus of his practice.
