Starting therapy is a brave decision! Here are some frequently asked questions to help you get started!
What are your hours?
I see clients Tuesdays through Fridays between the hours of 9:30am and 3:00pm
What ages do you work with?
I primarily work with teens and young adults.
How long are sessions?
Individual therapy is 60 minutes. I also offer extended EMDR sessions (90 minutes to 2 hours) for more in depth trauma treatment.
Do you see clients through insurance?
I do not see clients through insurance. As an out of network provider, I can send you a superbill once per month which is an itemized list of all services you have received. This document will provide you with the information necessary to seek reimbursement from your insurance company. I will not be speaking with your insurance company directly in order to maintain confidentiality.
What are your self pay rates?
Weekly 60 Minute Sessions: $300
Extended Sessions (90 to 120 minutes): Prorated amount of your 60 minute fee
Phone calls over 5 minutes are charged a prorated amount
Do you offer teletherapy or in person?
Both! Teletherapy and in person sessions are both options to choose from. Also, teletherapy and in person sessions are interchangable, meaning you can request to switch the session from one modality to the other, and I will do my best to accommodate you!
What is your cancellation policy?
- In order to get the optimal results that therapy has to offer, consistency is key! For that reason, I have a “no cancellation policy.” Intrigued? Ask me more about it!
Will the things I discuss in therapy be kept private?
Absolutely! I am legally required to maintain confidentiality through HIPAA which is a federal regulation enacted to protect your personal health information. There are very few circumstances that require me to break confidentiality. Those include 1. If you are an immediate threat to yourself or others, 2. Suspicion of child abuse or dependent elder abuse, and 3. If I’m subpoenaed to court.
Why Therapy?
Never be afraid to fall apart because it is an opportunity to rebuild yourself the way you wish you had been all along.

When we talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary.

There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.
