​
1. WHAT IS THE LENGTH AND FREQUENCY OF OUR SESSIONS?
​
Standard sessions for individuals are 50 minutes and take place weekly at the beginning of therapy. Couples’ sessions are 60 minutes for the first session and 50 minutes for follow-up sessions.
​
We will decide mutually when it is time to taper the frequency of our sessions. I have many clients who have tapered to an “as needed” basis after they have achieved the relief needed from the situation that brought them to therapy in the first place. Other clients wish to maintain a regular schedule and meet monthly or quarterly to keep making progress on their personal growth.
​

3. DO YOU BILL INSURANCE?
​
I am currently in-network with a limited number of insurance plans as I transition to a primarily private-pay practice. Superbills are available for out-of-network reimbursement.
​
Keep in mind that in order to utilize your insurance, medical necessity must be verified and a mental health diagnosis will be assigned. This is why many people opt to pay privately for counseling. It is important to note that other agencies and institutions have access to insurance files, so I am not an advocate of utilizing managed care systems for mental health purposes if it is not necessary. All managed care companies require a diagnosis, and unfortunately a psychiatric diagnosis, even something as benign as an adjustment disorder, can impede your ability to obtain life insurance or even medical insurance if you are self-employed. If it’s in your file, others have access to it. Paying privately assures your confidentiality.
