FAQ

What services do you provide?

I provide HIPAA compliant telehealth for individual and family therapy.

I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. At this time, I am only seeing adults (18+).

I do not provide custody evaluations, recommendations, or evaluations related to any type of court case, or write ESA letters.

Do you take my insurance?

As of now, I accept the following insurance providers:

For other insurances, I am considered an out-of-network provider. I can provide you with a Superbill, which you can submit to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement. Reimbursement rates are dependent on your insurance policy. Please contact your insurance provider to receive information about your out-of-network benefits.

What are your hours?

My business hours are Monday through Friday, 10am to 6pm. I do not work on the weekends. If you contact me outside of my working hours, I will try to get back to you within 24 business hours.

What are your fees?

For clients who are using their insurance, fees/copays are dependent on your insurance providers. Once we complete the consultation, we will run insurance verification to provide you with the estimated cost of services.

For clients who are interested in private pay, my fees are:

For more information, please see my Financial Agreement Form.

Do you offer a sliding scale?

I reserve a specific number of sliding scale spots to provide access to services for clients who are in need of financial accommodation. You will be provided a Good Faith Estimate if we decide to use a sliding scale fee. For information on the Good Faith Estimate, please see the FAQ below.

Please contact me if you are interested in a sliding scale fee and to see if there are any open spots for sliding scale options.

Do you offer in-person services?

I am not currently offering in-person services, and only offer tele-health services through HIPAA compliant Zoom.

For additional information, please see my Telehealth Consent Form.

What is your cancellation policy?

I have a 24 hour cancellation policy. If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, I ask that you contact me 24 hours before our appointment. If the session is cancelled within the 24 hours, the full session fee would be charged for the late cancellation.

How would I start this process?

Before we schedule, I would like to have the chance to speak with you over the phone to hear more about what you're looking for and get to know you. 

I am a firm believer in the importance and power of the therapeutic relationship, and I highly encourage each of my clients to ensure that we will be a good fit, in order to both of us to grow through this process together.

Please complete the contact form to submit an inquiry for a free 15 minute consultation.

What would our first session look like?

My clients receive a reminder for our appointment 24 hours in advanced, with the date, time, and cost of our session.

During our first session, we will review the signed consent forms, which would have been completed before the start of sessions. We will also be working on exploring history and background for "information gathering" so we can establish a foundation for our work together. After this "intake" session, we will work together to identify our areas of focus and goals for our work together.

Our ongoing sessions, whether it's on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, will focus on having a space for open and collaborative discussion to address those goals. I work to incorporate insight-oriented and holistic care along with providing tools and resources to support you through this process.

Why telehealth services?

While in-person services provide a unique face-to-face experience, tele-therapy can have many benefits as well. These benefits include:

What is a Good Faith Estimate?

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.  

Under the law, health care providers need to give clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.   

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.  

You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service.  

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. 

Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
