A: Most people coming to therapy are a little nervous about their first visit. Our first session will begin with reviewing some of the expectations for working together and a thorough discussion around confidentiality. There is also plenty of opportunity for you to ask questions about the process of counseling or my professional background. This conversation is often helpful in establishing trust, as you can understand what to expect from me.

A: Yes, telehealth is always an option. Whether you prefer in-person sessions or telehealth, you have control over this choice.

This varies from person to person. Some people feel a sense of relief after the first session, while others may require multiple sessions to start feeling a shift.

Yes, I am legally required to provide a diagnosis to insurance companies when they pay for mental health sessions, regardless of whether I feel a diagnosis is needed or not.

Not every person needs a diagnosis. Sometimes you just need to talk things out in a safe, non-judgmental, and confidential environment.

Couples therapy is not usually covered by health insurance because it’s not deemed “medically necessary”. However, depending on your current health insurance provider or employee benefit plan, it is possible for services to be covered in full or in part. Please contact your insurance provider to verify how your plan compensates you for psychotherapy services.

Couples & Family therapy: $170 per 50-minute session.

Individual Therapy: $150 per 50-minute session.

If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours beforehand. There is a no-show fee of $50 for missed appointments.
