DESTINED FOR DISTINCTION
 

Terms and Conditions

Destined for Distinction’s Terms of Service

Effective Date: August 9, 2026

DO NOT USE THE PLATFORM OR PLATFORM SERVICES FOR MEDICAL EMERGENCIES. IF YOU HAVE A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY OR ATTEND THE EMERGENCY ROOM OF THE NEAREST HOSPITAL OR HEALTH CENTRE.

IF YOU OR SOMEONE ELSE IS IN IMMEDIATE DANGER OR EXPERIENCING A MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS, CALL 911, CALL OR TEXT 988, OR GO TO THE NEAREST EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT. DO NOT RELY ON THE PLATFORM, A THERAPIST OR A COACH FOR EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE. DESTINED FOR DISTINCTION PROVIDES LINKS TO CANADIAN CRISIS AND EMERGENCY RESOURCES, WHICH USERS SHOULD ACCESS WHEN URGENT SUPPORT IS NEEDED.

ANY PAYMENT TO DESTINED FOR DISTINCTION FOR THE USE OF THE PLATFORM IS FOR ACCESS TO PSYCHOTHERAPY, COACHING OR OTHER SERVICES MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE PLATFORM. PSYCHOTHERAPY SERVICES ARE PROVIDED BY APPROPRIATELY QUALIFIED AND, WHERE REQUIRED, REGULATED PROFESSIONALS. COACHING IS A SEPARATE, NON-CLINICAL SERVICE AND IS NOT PSYCHOTHERAPY, MEDICAL CARE, DIAGNOSIS OR TREATMENT. PRACTITIONERS MAY PROVIDE THEIR SERVICES THROUGH INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR ARRANGEMENTS. EACH PRACTITIONER REMAINS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DIRECT SERVICES THEY PROVIDE WITHIN THEIR QUALIFICATIONS AND SCOPE, AND NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS ANY RESPONSIBILITY THAT DESTINED FOR DISTINCTION HAS UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

The following Terms of Service (the “Terms of Service“) form an agreement between Destined for Distinction (“Destined for Distinction“) and you, and such Terms of Service will govern your use (the term ‘use’ will mean access or use, as applicable) of the Destined for Distinction online platform (the “App“) (collectively the “Platform“). The Platform provides you with access to psychotherapy services, coaching services and Information Tools (defined below) (collectively the “Platform Services“). Collectively, the Terms of Service together with the Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy“) govern the Agreement (the “Agreement“) between the parties.

The term “you” refers to the person or entity using the Platform or receiving any Platform Services. By accessing the website, using or subscribing to the Platform Services, or tendering a similar form of electronic acceptance, you agree with these Terms of Service. If you do not accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service, do not use the Platform.

Destined for Distinction reserves the right to amend any term of these Terms of Service at any time by giving 30 days’ notice. Any notices regarding modifications to these Terms of Service will be in a written form and provided to you: (i) by Destined for Distinction via email (in each case to the address that you provide); and/or (ii) via the Platform. For notices provided by email, the date on which such notice is transmitted will be deemed the date of receipt. You are not obliged to continue using the Platform Services after an amendment to these Terms of Service is made; however, in the event you choose to not accept the changes, you must immediately cease use of the Platform and the Platform Services and provide notice to Destined for Distinction that you are terminating your agreement to these Terms of Service. Cancellation fees may apply. Your continued use of the Platform Services following any amendment shall be deemed to be your acceptance of the amended Terms of Service, and waiver of any additional notice requirements.

Destined for Distinction reserves the right to change any information, material or content (the “Content“) contained on or provided through the Platform at any time, and from time to time, without notice. Content does not include your Personal Health Information (“PHI“) or your Personal Information (“PI“).

Use of Platform

Destined for Distinction grants you a personal, revocable, non-exclusive and non-transferable license to permit you to use the Platform, including downloading and installing the App on your personal mobile phone device for the purpose of accessing the Platform Services in accordance with these Terms of Service.

As a condition of your use of the Platform, you warrant that: (1) you are 18 years of age or older; (2) you possess the legal authority to create a binding legal obligation; (3) you will use the Platform in accordance with these Terms of Service; (4) all information supplied by you on the Platform is true, accurate, current and complete; and (5) if you are accessing or using the Platform on behalf of another person or a corporate entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind such person or entity to these Terms of Service.

Children Under 13
The Platform is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the Platform. If you are under 13, do not create an Account or submit any personal information through the Platform. If you are a parent or legal guardian and believe that a child under 13 has provided personal information to us, please contact us at welcome@destinedfordistinction.com and we will take reasonable steps to delete the information and close any related Account.

The Platform is provided solely (the “Permitted Use“) to: (1) give you access to services offered through the Platform, including psychotherapy services provided by Therapists and coaching services provided by Coaches, as well as educational graphics, research sources, workshops, meetups and other incidental information on the Platform; (2) if applicable, facilitate payments to Destined for Distinction in respect of your use of the Platform or receipt of services through the Platform; and (3) provide feedback and otherwise communicate with Destined for Distinction in connection with any of the foregoing.

Additionally, you agree not to access or use the Service in an unlawful way or for an unlawful or illegitimate purpose or in any manner that contravenes these terms. You shall not post, use, store or transmit: (i) a message or information under a false name; (ii) information that is unlawful, libelous, defamatory, obscene, fraudulent, predatory of minors, harassing, threatening or hateful to any person; or (iii) information that infringes or violates any of the intellectual property rights of others or the privacy or publicity rights of others. You shall not attempt to disrupt the operation of the Service by any method, including through use of viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time bombs, denial of service attacks, flooding or spamming. You shall not use the Service in any manner that could damage, disable or impair the Service. You shall not attempt to gain unauthorized access to any user accounts or computer systems or networks through hacking, password mining, or any other means. You shall not use any robot, scraper or other means to access the Service for any purpose. Neither Destined for Distinction nor its affiliates are under any obligation to respond to messages posted on the Service. You are solely responsible for the information or material you post on the Service.

If Destined for Distinction deems that you have used the Platform in any manner contrary to the Permitted Use, or if you have violated any of these Terms of Service, Destined for Distinction retains the right to deny you further access to the Platform or the Platform Services it offers, at any time and in its sole discretion.

Site Content

Other than guidance provided directly to you by your Therapist or Coach within an established professional relationship, Content on the website, including educational graphics, research sources and other incidental information, is general information only. It is not psychotherapy, coaching, medical advice, diagnosis or treatment and is not personalised for you. Questions about diagnosis, medication or clinical treatment should be directed to an appropriately qualified regulated healthcare professional. Destined for Distinction does not endorse any specific test, medication, product, procedure or treatment unless expressly stated.

Platform Services

Psychotherapy and Coaching Services:

The Platform Services enable you to obtain access to professionals who may include Registered Psychotherapists, Registered Psychotherapists (Qualifying), Social Workers and other professionals who are lawfully permitted to provide the services described in their profiles (collectively, “Therapists“), as well as life, personal, spiritual or other Coaches (“Coaches“). Therapists and Coaches are collectively referred to as “Practitioners“. Access may include video or audio appointments, consultations and related professional and administrative support provided virtually.

Psychotherapy Services. Therapists who provide regulated services through the Platform must hold the registration, licence or other authorization required by the province or territory in which they practise. Their professional designation and role will be identified on their profile or in service documents. Psychotherapy Services are clinical services and are subject to the applicable professional, ethical, consent, privacy and record-keeping requirements.

Coaching Services. Coaching is a collaborative, goal-oriented service intended to support areas such as personal development, decision-making, accountability, life transitions and practical action. Coaching is separate from psychotherapy and is not a regulated healthcare service, medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. A Coach must not present Coaching Services as psychotherapy or provide a regulated service unless that individual is separately qualified and authorized to do so and the service is expressly identified as such. Coaching is not a substitute for care from an appropriately qualified healthcare or mental health professional.

Independent Contractor Practitioners. Practitioners may provide services through independent contractor arrangements with Destined for Distinction and, unless expressly stated otherwise, are not employees of Destined for Distinction. This describes the business relationship between Destined for Distinction and the Practitioner; it does not reduce the Practitioner’s responsibility to work within their qualifications, scope, ethical obligations and applicable legal or regulatory requirements. It also does not exclude or limit any responsibility of Destined for Distinction that cannot lawfully be excluded, including responsibilities relating to the Platform, administration, billing, privacy or information in its custody or control.

Your Relationship with Destined for Distinction and the Practitioner. When you arrange services through the Platform, Destined for Distinction provides access to the practice, scheduling, billing and other administrative support, while the selected Practitioner is responsible for providing the direct professional service. For Psychotherapy Services, you enter into a client-therapist relationship with the selected Therapist. For Coaching Services, you enter into a client-coach relationship with the selected Coach. Before services begin, you may also receive service-specific consent, privacy or practice documents explaining the nature of the relationship, who is responsible for your records, who may access them and how to request access or correction. Those documents supplement these Terms of Service.

Destined for Distinction does not guarantee the availability of any particular Practitioner at any particular time. We will make reasonable efforts to arrange an appointment, but do not guarantee that a consultation or session will be available within a particular time frame.

Information Tools:

The Platform provides access to various mental health, wellness and personal-development informational tools, including workshops, meetups and additional features and tools provided from time to time, as further described on the Platform (“Information Tools“). The Information Tools are available independently of services provided by Practitioners.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, Information Tools provide general educational information and do not constitute psychotherapy, coaching, mental health advice, diagnosis or treatment. If you submit information through an Information Tool, any information returned to you is general and is not a substitute for advice or services from an appropriately qualified professional.

Other Limitations:

The Content provided through the Platform, except for guidance communicated directly to you by a Practitioner within an established professional relationship, is not personalised professional advice. Content and Information Tools are not designed for you specifically. Each Practitioner is responsible for determining the appropriateness of the direct services they provide, subject to their professional obligations and the terms applicable to those services.

Geographic Application of the Platform

The Platform is made available for use in Canada only. By signing the Terms of Service you represent and warrant that you are and will be in Canada when using our Platform. If you access the Platform from outside Canada, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.

Account Enrollment

To access the Services, you must first enroll to establish an individual user account (“Account“), by providing certain information. You agree that you will not create more than one Account, nor create an Account for anyone other than yourself without first receiving permission from the other person. In exchange for your use of the Service and, if applicable, in order for Practitioners to send notices to you, you agree to: (i) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by our Account enrollment form; and (ii) each time you log on, maintain and promptly update such Account information to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or if Destined for Distinction has reasonable grounds to suspect that such Account information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, Destined for Distinction reserves the right to terminate your account and refuse any future request(s) to use the Destined for Distinction Services. You shall at all times remain responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Account password and username (if any) and any other security information related to your Account. Destined for Distinction will not be liable for any loss that you incur as a result of someone else accessing and using your Account, either with or without your knowledge.

Extended Health Insurance

In addition to the registration described above, access to eligible Psychotherapy Services through an Employer-sponsored benefit plan or other extended insurance plan may require you to provide additional registration information. When applicable, your employer or the employer of the subscriber of your benefits will not be told that you or your family member are using the Services unless the information is shared by you, authorized by you or required as part of a pre-arranged program or by law. Destined for Distinction may communicate with your insurance provider on your behalf to determine eligibility or benefits where you authorize it to do so. BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOU AUTHORIZE DESTINED FOR DISTINCTION TO CONTACT YOUR INSURANCE PROVIDER ON YOUR BEHALF AND AGREE TO PROVIDE THE INFORMATION REASONABLY REQUIRED BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY. YOU MAY WITHDRAW THIS AUTHORIZATION AT ANY TIME, SUBJECT TO ANY ACTION ALREADY TAKEN IN RELIANCE ON IT.

Coaching Services are separate from Psychotherapy Services and may not be eligible for reimbursement under an extended health insurance or employee benefit plan. You are responsible for confirming coverage directly with your insurer. Destined for Distinction and its Practitioners do not guarantee that any service, Practitioner, receipt or expense will be accepted or reimbursed by an insurer or third-party payor.

Information collected under these circumstances may include, but is not limited to:

  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • Email
  • Date of Birth
  • Phone number
  • Relationship with claimant (yourself, or the spouse, domestic partner, or dependent of an employee in certain programs)
  • Employer’s name

Destined for Distinction may request additional information from time to time.

Payment

Payments made through the Platform may be used to compensate the Practitioner who provides the direct service and Destined for Distinction for practice access, scheduling, billing, administrative support, technology, overhead and transaction costs.

A Practitioner may be paid as an independent contractor for the direct Psychotherapy Services or Coaching Services provided to you. The internal compensation arrangement between Destined for Distinction and the Practitioner does not change the fees you have agreed to pay or your professional relationship with the Practitioner. You agree to pay all fees and charges associated with your Account on a timely basis in accordance with the fee schedule and the terms and rates published by Destined for Distinction from time to time. The full amount of fees and charges, including applicable taxes and late or cancellation fees, may be charged to your credit card or debit card after each session or when otherwise due. You agree to maintain valid payment information in your Account. By providing payment information, you authorize Destined for Distinction and its payment processor to charge the applicable fees in accordance with the fee schedule in place at the time.

Where applicable, receipts for eligible Psychotherapy Services will identify the Practitioner and service information required for you to submit a claim. A receipt does not guarantee reimbursement. Receipts for Coaching Services are not psychotherapy or healthcare receipts and should be submitted to an insurer only if the insurer confirms that the Coaching Service is covered.

If you access eligible Psychotherapy Services through Extended Health Insurance, an Employer-sponsored benefit plan or another insurance-backed plan and direct billing is available, payment may be arranged through a third-party payor that administers or insures the benefit program. You remain responsible for any co-payment, deductible, denied claim, amount exceeding your coverage or additional service not paid by the third-party payor.
