COMMON QUERIES
ARE YOUR SERVICES EXCLUSIVELY ONLINE?
Yes. I serve all of my clients through a teletherapy platform.
HOW DO I GET STARTED?
The first step (and often the most daunting) is to make contact. Contact me for a free video consultation to decide if we are a good fit. After that, we can set up an appointment for our first session, or I may offer you other mental health referrals that might be of better service to you. No matter the outcome, you'll get to feel good about taking charge of your life.
HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?
I can definitely understand this question and I wish I had an answer! It's different for everyone and it depends on several variables. The ideal situation for the best results is to commit and to show up weekly especially at the beginning of therapy.
HOW LONG IS EACH THERAPY SESSION?
Psychotherapy rounds off after 50ish minutes, then a few minutes are allocated for next steps. With that said, sessions are typically between 50-55 minutes, unless we determine ahead of time that a longer session is necessary.
WHAT IS YOUR FEE?
$175 is the individual session fee for clients on a weekly schedule.
DO YOU ACCEPT INSURANCE?
No, I am no longer contracted with insurance carriers as an in-network provider. However, you might have out-of-network benefits that reimburse for psychotherapy. If so, I can provide you with a superbill to submit to your insurance carrier. Alternatively, I am happy to submit for you as a courtesy, contingent upon your insurance carrier's permission.
