FAQ’s

  • How do I set up an initial appointment for therapy?

    The best way to reach me is through the contact form on this site. After receving your request we’ll work together to schedule a free 10-minute phone consultation. The phone consultation is our opportunity to discuss your current concerns, to assess the way I can possibly support you, and the type of therapy that might be the best fit.

  • Do you accept insurance?

    I am a private pay only and accept payment via credit card and/or HSA/FSA benefit card. I can also provide a superbill which you can submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement.

    For my current therapy session rates, please refer to my Services page.

  • Are your sessions in-person or remote?

    I am only seeing clients remotely via telehealth at this time, but I do see clients in-person if they schedule an appointment for Equine Therapy.

    See Equine Therapy tab for more information.

  • What is your cancellation policy?

    Therapy is a collaborative relationship and being able to attend with consistency and practicing change daily to meet your goals is an important part of the process. I require 24 hours to cancel or reschedule your appointment. I do charge the full rate of the session if you do not cancel within the 24 hours.

  • What if I don't know if I want to schedule with you yet?

    Let’s schedule a 10-minute free consultation. We can talk about your concerns, your past experiences in therapy, and your goals for treatment. This will help you decide what you’d like to do moving forward.

    At this time, I only provide voluntary counseling, and do not provide court-ordered counseling.
