I deeply value your privacy and autonomy. For that reason, I work independently.
I do offer a monthly superbill, which is available upon request.
PPO insurance plans will often accept superbills from out-of-network private practice therapists and allow you to receive partial compensation for session fees. You would be responsible for submitting these superbills to your insurance company.
I recommend reaching out to your insurance company first to determine their reimbursement rates and suberbill submission process.

Session can be paid by debit, credit, FSA, or HSA cards. I ask all clients to keep a card on file to simplify the billing process.

The sliding scale model aims to reduce barriers to mental health care and ensure that everyone has the opportunity to seek support. This approach allows for flexibility and helps create a more inclusive environment for healing and personal growth.
While my normal hourly rates start at $185 for individuals and $200 for couples I reserve a limited amount of spots each month for clients who can pay a discounted rate, consummate to their financial ability and situation.
These discounted rates can only be applied to clients looking for weekly sessions.
-
I ask for at least 48 hours of cancellation notice prior to our scheduled session, via email or voicemail. If I do not receive adequate notice, the full session fee will be charged.
However, there will be no late cancellation charge if we are able to reschedule within the same session period.

I offer HIPAA-compliant telehealth sessions through Simple Practice so that you can participate from the comforts of your own home. You will receive an email with a link prior session to access our scheduled time.
For telehealth sessions please remember to:
Have a secure WIFI signal
Be in a private location so that there are no unwanted interruptions
Use your headphones if needed

Prior to the initial session, I will send you a link to set up your client portal. Here you can access and fill out paperwork for us to begin our work together.
At your session, we will review any questions you have about the paperwork, spend time getting to know you, address what brings you into therapy, and set up goals for treatment.
The first several sessions allow me to get a sense of what has been going on for you and what we will be addressing in treatment.

Sessions are typically 45 minutes for individuals and 50 minutes for couples and families. I have found therapy works best on a weekly cycle for most people. Consistent sessions are key to building a good rapport, progress/growth, and a secure safe space.

Unfortunately my office is located in a second-floor suite of a building that does not have an elevator and is not ADA-compliant at this time.
If this is a barrier for you, please do not hesitate to let me know so that we can pursue alternative options for treatment (i.e. online sessions, referrals, etc.).
