Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of a 50 minute individual therapy session is $150. I do offer sliding scale rates based on financial need. Please contact me for more information on reduced rates.

A typical counseling session lasts for 50 minutes, although some sessions may be longer or shorter depending on your needs and preferences. In our initial first session, you can expect us to do an intake assessment where I begin to learn more about you, what brings you in, and answer any additional questions you have about our time together. 

I can help with a wide range of issues including, but not limited to, anxiety, depression, racial identity, relational issues, grief and loss, trauma, and life transitions.

I have a 48 hour cancellation policy. This means that sessions that are cancelled with less than 48 hour notice will be billed for the full session. I also have a 15 minute no show policy which means that if a client does not show up for sessions within the first 15 minutes, the session will be marked as no show and clients will be billed for the full session. I understand emergencies happen and am happy to discuss exceptions based on every indiviudals needs. 

There are many reasons including, but not limited to, having more flexible rate options, the ability to have more control, freedom and confidentiality in treatment, and lean away from diagnosing and or pathologizing an individual due to insurance companies requiring specific diagnoses that meet medical necessity in order to receive services. 

If you are unsure if you are able to submit super-bills for reimbursement, here are a few questions you can ask your insurance company: 

• Do I have out of network benefits?
• If so, what is my out of network deductible and has it been met this year? 
• What is my reimbursement rate for seeing an out of network provider?

Your insurance will respond with a percentage in regards to your reimbursement rate. At minimum, most insurance policies will reimburse 50%. Even so, every insurance benefit package is different and I encourage you to reach out to your insurance company to inquire what you qualify for.
