How long does therapy take?
It varies. Some people come for a few months to a year to address a specific issue; others continue for three or more years for deeper work. We'll discuss your goals and assess progress together.

How often should I come?
Most clients benefit from weekly sessions, especially at the beginning. Others prefer to start with more than once a week session. As progress is made, some transition to biweekly.

What if I don't know what to talk about?
That's normal. I'll ask questions to help us explore what's going on. You don't need to prepare or have a structured agenda.

Is therapy confidential?
Yes, completely. I only share information with your written permission or if there's an imminent risk of harm.

Will you give me advice?
Sometimes, but therapy is less about advice and more about helping you understand yourself better so you can make decisions that align with your values and goals.

What is your fee?
Individual Therapy: $330 per 50 minute session

I understand that therapy is a significant investment. I reserve a limited number of reduced-fee slots for clients who need financial accommodation.

Please don't hesitate to discuss fees with me during our initial consultation. Finding a therapist who's the right fit is important, and I don't want cost to be a barrier if we're a good match.

.Do you take insurance?
I do not take any insurance. However, I am an out-of-network provider.my services are often reimbursable through your insurance plan's out-of-network benefits.

What this means for you:

  1. You pay my fee at the time of each session

  2. I provide you with a detailed receipt (superbill) with all necessary information

  3. You submit the superbill to your insurance company for reimbursement

  4. Many plans reimburse 50-80% of out-of-network fees

I'm happy to:

  • Provide superbills after each session

  • Help you understand your out-of-network benefits

  • Answer questions about the reimbursement process

  • Provide a letter of medical necessity if your insurance requires it

How can I check my benefits?
Call the number on the back of your insurance card and ask:

  • "Do I have out-of-network mental health benefits?"

  • "What percentage do you reimburse for out-of-network psychotherapy?"

  • "Do I have a deductible? Has it been met?"

  • "Is there a limit to how many sessions are covered per year?"

  • "Do I need pre-authorization?"

Why out-of-Network?
Working outside of insurance panels allows me to:

  • Protect your privacy — No diagnosis needs to be shared with insurance companies

  • Tailor treatment to your needs — Not restricted by insurance requirements or session limits

  • Offer flexible session lengths — We can extend sessions when beneficial without authorization

  • Provide the highest quality of care — My focus is on your wellbeing, not insurance company guidelines

  • Maintain confidentiality — Insurance companies don't have access to your therapy records
