Everything you need to know before your first session.
Call, text or email me to set up your free initial 15-minute phone consultation. After that, if we decide to proceed, we will schedule your first 50-minute session. I will email you the Intake and Consent to Treat forms you need to fill out and return to me by your first session.
During your first session, we will review the paperwork and my office policies. Then we will discuss what brought you to therapy, what you want to work on and what I can help you with. Together we will try to formulate goals and create a roadmap for the course of your therapy experience.
My fee is $175.00 per session. I take some sliding scale clients, and also see students and interns completing their therapy hours for $80.00 per session. Payment can be either cash, check or credit card, or Zelle.
I currently take Optum and Magellan insurance. Also, if you have a PPO plan that reimburses for out-of-network providers, I will assist you with that process.
I require 24-hours notice for a cancellation or you will be charged for a missed session. In the case of a true emergency, the fee may be waived.
I do not prescribe medication. If medication is an option we decide to explore, I will refer you to a MD for a psychiatric evaluation.
Call, text or email me to set up your free initial 15-minute phone consultation, or send the form and I will reach out to you.
