Payment

I am accepting self-pay clients only. Self pay means that you will be charged a standard rate of $120 at each appointment.
If you would like to use insurance benefits I will be glad to provide a super-bill to document our appointments and fee to pursue reimbursement with your insurance company.
Using a self pay method allows me to document freely without the restrictions of insurance companies. I believe Insurance companies should not dictate the scope or number of sessions provided. Being in contract with insurance companies require a diagnosis that stays with you, access to your records and an overall version of documenting that is outdated. This is an intimate process, and it works best if I can maintain your confidentiality in all possible ways.
I am also leaning into the work I am honored to do with so many of you—taking up space, asking for what I need and knowing my worth. This is part of my self-care, walking the walk and protecting the sustainability of this career I have invested so much in.
Restrictive legislation locally and globally makes giving anyone access to your medical records a risk and a limitation to your care I am wrestling with. I am trying to manage that risk and provide accessible care. Please contact me if you would like services but cost is a barrier.

Scheduling

I use an online portal to schedule, complete paperwork, give access to your information and process payments the way you would like and with the flexibility of online access.
You can schedule here.

Sessions

The first appointment I will gather information about you life, goals, and ambitions for therapy. You will also gain a deeper understanding of how I would address your specific situation. The first appointment will not be therapy per-say but information gathering, planning and a vibe check.
From there we will begin the foundational and explorative work of therapy based on the plan we set in the first session and will go back to re-evaluate regularly.
There will be countless pages of notes, resources and reminders I send from our sessions. Connecting the tangible act of memos and reminders connects the emotional and cognitive parts of our brains. Handwriting notes and reminders continues to be part of my ritual, even in this virtual format.
It helps to have a journal or place to keep your therapy work. the assumption is that we are building tools that will become organic and you will need to reference later.

Health & Safety Procedures:

My office is accessible by bus route.
My office is accessible by wheel chair or using most walking assistance.
I am fully vaccinated.
I have a medical grade air purifier in my office.
There will be 6ft. between our chairs.
I will wear a mask in session if requested.
I will continue to offer virtual sessions.

Good Faith Estimate (posted per federal law)
You are entitled to receive this “Good Faith Estimate” of what the charges could be for psychotherapy services provided to you. While it is not possible for a psychotherapist to know in advance how many sessions may be necessary or appropriate for a given person you will sign both an informed consent as well as a financial agreement, both of which clearly state my fee, prior to you being seen for services and prior to any billing. You will be free to discontinue services or adjust according to your budget at any time. You may obtain a good faith estimate of my charges upon request prior to scheduling with me. This will be a projection of potential costs based on time in session rather than a estimation of your time in therapy. This estimate is not a contract and does not obligate you to obtain any services from the provider listed, and it may be updated according to therapist recommendation as new information emerges or through mutual decision making between you and the therapist. The No Surprises Law give you the right to initiate a dispute process if the actual charges are substantially in excess of the Good Faith Estimated charges . This will not happen since you will be agreeing up front to my fee before beginning treatment. Dispute information is available upon request.

LATE CANCELLATION FEES are $100 per late cancellation, and these fees are in addition to any other session fees that may have already occurred or are yet to occur. Late cancellation fees are imposed for any cancellation initiated by you with less than 24 hours’ notice of cancellation. Therapist cannot anticipate the number of late cancellations that you will request, and therefore cannot provide an accurate estimate to you of these fees, other than the single-time fee amount.

For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call (800) 368-1019
