Frequently Asked Questions

 

how do i get started?

I invite you to call, email, or text for an initial consultation. This serves as an opportunity for us to better understand your needs, discuss any questions you may have. Should we decide to work together, we will secure a day and time to connect for a full session.

Prior to our scheduled session, I will send you a welcome email, with documentation to review. This will include information about privacy and confidentiality, as well as assessment questions to gain a full understanding of your well-being.

what should i expect when we meet?

Sessions are 45 minutes. Our initial session will be built around what is most helpful to you in the moment, which may largely include concerns shared in the consultation. We work together to determine how many sessions would be helpful. This supportive, safe relationship is available to navigate short-term consultation, complex and challenging situations, or to serve as a space to become deeply reflective about yourself and your life.

What is your fee and how does payment work?

Each 45 minute individual therapy session is $150. Accepted forms of payment include: cash, HSA, debit/credit card, Paypal.

Because I am not comfortable with the structure, process, and level of confidentiality provided by health insurance companies, I currently am not contracted with any insurance panels. As a service to you, I am happy to provide you with a detailed receipt (Superbill) that you can submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement. If you want to use your insurance benefit, it is best to contact your insurance provider prior to starting therapy to verify what may or may not be covered by your plan.

Questions to ask your insurance provider:

1. Do I have Out of Network mental health benefits?

2. Do I have an Out of Network deductible? If so, how much is it, and has it been met?

3. What is my Out of Network reimbursement rate per session?

4. How many sessions are covered per calendar year?
