Frequently Asked Questions

I do not provide therapy in-person at this time. I am currently 100% telehealth.

Online therapy works a lot like in-person therapy without the commute time.
We’ll use a HIPAA compliant secure platform and you will receive a link to our session a day or two prior.
You will need: a computer, tablet, or smartphone; a reliable internet connection; and a quiet, comfortable, confidential space where you can speak freely with minimal distractions.

50 minute session: $150
This fee applies to you if: I am not in network with your insurance provider, you do not have insurance, or you choose to waive your insurance coverage.
If I am not in network with your insurance provider, I am able to provide you with a superbill, which is a receipt you can submit to your insurance for possible out-of-network reimbursement. If this is the case, you are responsible for full payment at the time of your session. You will need to contact your insurance directly to determine if they will reimburse you.

As much as I love this modality, it is definitely not the only one I use. If you are interested in EMDR, you’ll be screened for appropriateness before we begin.

Our first appointment together is my initial clinical assessment. Prior to our first meeting, you will have completed some paperwork, including a brief questionnaire. We will briefly review some housekeeping items regarding telehealth expectations and a brief review of some of the practice policies. After that, we will review the questionnaire and get to know more about the current stressors and your goals for therapy.

The length of time in therapy is unique to each individual and their treatment goals. I may have recommendations based on your needs, and ideally we will collaborate together to determine the amount of time you commit to your therapy. Ultimately, the time you spend is entirely up to you.
I typically like to see you weekly at least for the first few sessions. This allows me to have consistent time to get to know you. Thereafter, depending on your needs and your progress toward your goals, we can discuss decreasing frequency.
Whatever your length or frequency, I am here to support and collaborate with you along the way.
