Schedule

I hold in person sessions Tuesday -Thursday and am available virtually Monday-Friday with some Saturday hours.  

​

Required Paperwork

I use an electronic health record system called Simple Practice. I am able to send all the necessary paperwork for your review and signature through their secure HIPPA compliant portal. Please understand that if I do not have the appropriate paperwork on file, I will not continue with the scheduled session. The review and intake process usually takes about 20 minutes to complete. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have about therapy, my practice or to schedule a free 20 minute consultation.

​

Teletherapy

 I use a HIPPA compliant service, doxy.me. I will need the appropriate paperwork on file as well as an additional informed consent for teletherapy before our first session.

Fees & Payment

I currently do not accept insurance and am only private pay. There are many good reasons for choosing to pay out-of-pocket. This allows you to have more privacy and control over your information. Insurance companies are able to limit the number of sessions you have per year, or may limit the amount of time your session may be. Many insurance companies are pushing for a 45 minute session time. By paying out of pocket, you determine how long to stay in therapy, you are guaranteed a 60 minute session, you decide what you want to work on each session, and who if anyone has access to your information.

 

I have a sliding fee scale which you can find below. I do not require proof of income and trust that you will be honest in your assessment of your fee. If you do not feel you can afford the fee category, or if through the course of treatment your economic situation changes please discuss your concern with me and we can adjust payment based on your concerns.

I do not want price to hinder your ability for mental health services or your continuity of care, so I am always willing to negotiate a fee that is fair and affordable for you. 

 

I accept all major credit cards, cash, and check. Clients are usually able to use their HSA accounts as payment as well. I can also create a super bill to submit for out of network services with your insurance carrier, but again you would be submitting for your own reimbursement. Payment is expected at the end of session or within 24 hours of invoicing.

Thank you.
