Frequently Asked Questions

What are your fees?

I charge $115 per session. Session length is 50 minutes. 

Do you take credit and debit cards?

Yes. I use a billing service that allows me to take credit and debit cards.

Do you accept insurance?

No. However, I do provide statements that you may submit to your insurance company for reimbursement if you wish.

Here are the 4 main reasons I do not accept insurance:

1. Lack of confidentiality: Insurance companies require diagnosis information and other treatment information in order to authorize treatment. Once that is provided by a therapist, the therapist can no longer insure that the information will remain confidential.

2. Difficulty getting treatment authorized: Sometimes there is a lengthy process involved in getting authorization for treatment. This can cause your treatment to be inconsistent, broken up, and can cause further delays in getting the help you need.

3. Misdiagnosing or overdiagnosing in order to get treatment authorized: most insurance companies will not cover treatment unless it is “medically necessary”. This may mean the client has to “pretend” to have a diganosis in order to receive benefits. 

4. Most insurance companies do not cover marriage or family counseling unless it is part of a treatment plan for a more serious mental disorder.  

What hours are you available?

Hours are available by appointment only. I offer daytime and evening sessions.  Please call to schedule an appointment.
