Frequently Asked Questions

What are your fees for services?

My fee is $180 for 50-minute Individual session. My fee is $ 200 for a 50-minute family session.*Extended sessions are also available (please ask about current rates).

Do you accept Insurance?

I currently take Optum, Aetna and Cigna through Alma platform. I can also provide you with a receipt to give to your insurance to seek reimbursement. Insurance plans that reimburse for therapy include PPO's and HSA's. They usually cover a percentage of your fees, but not the total amount. Contact your insurance provider and ask if they cover "out-of-network" psychotherapy services.

Do you offer sliding scale?

I currently do not have any sliding scale slots available. If you are looking for a lower fee for therapy, a resource some people like is Open Path Collective.

Do you offer a consultation call?

I offer a free 15 minute consultation where we can find out a little bit about what you're looking for in therapy, and tell you how I work so you can decide if this is a good fit for you. Occasionally, I may recommend you seek help with a more specialized therapist if you are looking for help with something outside of our expertise, but we are able to accommodate the needs of most people seeking therapy.

Do you offer in-person sessions?

Yes, I have some availability in person for therapy sessions and or online. Therapy sessions conducted online  are via a secure video platform.

How Effective is online therapy?

Online therapy is just as effective as in-person therapy for most issues. For certain situations, in-person therapy is preferable. For example, if a client is in crisis, it's better for the therapist to be in the same location.

What is the first session like?

We will review your intake questioner. We will discus some initial goals for therapy. Then I'll ask you some standard health history questions. You can also ask me as many questions as you want. My aim is to be as transparent as possible about the therapy process. By the end of your first session, you'll have a good idea of how long it will take to reach your goals.
