FAQS
How do I get started?
Reach out via email with questions or to schedule an introductory call. I typically respond within 24-hours (Monday - Friday).
I offer introductory “meet and greet” consultation calls free of charge. Calls typically last 10-15 minutes and are an opportunity for you to ask questions, and for us to get a better sense of whether we might be a good match working together. If I don't think I am the right therapist for you, I can offer you referrals or resources in your area.
My standard fees are $140 - $160 per session. Whether we work together utilizing your in- or out-of-network benefits, I can assist you with the billing and/or reimbursement processes. I am also happy to provide a list of questions for you to ask your insurance member services about your benefits and coverage. For individuals not utilizing insurance for their therapy, I offer a Good Faith Estimate.
Inquiries regarding current insurance participation, fees, and sliding scale availability are welcomed.
What is a typical session like?
I meet with clients on a weekly basis to start. In my experience, this helps us to get to know each other as we get started in our work together, and allows for momentum to develop as we work towards your goals for therapy. Sessions begin with a brief check-in followed by an invitation for you to choose what you would like to focus on that day. Because I offer an integrative approach to therapy, we may explore elements and patterns from your past, as well as ways to more easily navigate the present moment with grounding tools or centering practices. I do not assign weekly “homework,” but welcome working with you to identify intentions or action steps you’d like to take in between in our meetings. My therapeutic style is warm, active and collaborative.
How do telehealth sessions work?
To help ensure ease of use and confidentiality, I utilize an online meeting platform designed specifically for therapists called Thera-link. Sessions are HIPAA compliant and generally reimbursable by insurance. I will send you a link via email that you can use for your appointment. You can pay for your session as you log on. The platform I use allows you to turn off your self-view, making for a more natural meeting experience.
