FAQs
We truly love helping our clients.
How do I begin therapy with you?
Please give me a call or send an email. We’ll have a short chat so I can get a sense of what’s bringing you in and answer any questions you might have. There’s no pressure – just a chance for us to connect and see if it feels like a good fit.
What happens after we talk?
If you decide you’d like to move forward, we’ll schedule your first session. I’ll share everything you need to know beforehand so you can feel prepared and comfortable walking in.
What is the first session like?
Our first session is all about getting to know each other. We’ll talk about what’s been going on in your life and what you hope to get out of therapy. You don’t have to have it all figured out – we’ll take it one step at a time, together.
How do I decide between in-person and telehealth sessions?
It depends on your needs and preferences. Some clients enjoy the connection of in-person sessions, while others prefer the accessibility of telehealth. I’m happy to discuss what works best for you.
I do both in-person and telehealth therapy.
How long is each session?
Sessions usually last about 50 to 55 minutes. It’s your time to talk, reflect, and feel supported.
What happens in ongoing sessions?
In each session, we’ll work toward your goals in a way that feels manageable and meaningful. Whether we’re exploring emotions, learning new tools, or simply holding space for whatever you’re going through, I’ll be right there with you.
Do you accept insurance?
I’m in network with Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS). If you’re using another insurance provider, I’m happy to provide a receipt that you can submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement.
What is a "Good Faith Estimate"?
Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.
You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
