  • There are several reasons why I am not in network with any insurance plans.

    • Insurance companies require a mental health disorder diagnosis, which will stay with your permanent health record.

    • They also require information about your qualifying symptoms and specific work in counseling.

    • Not involving insurance companies is the only way to assure your utmost confidentiality.

    • You and your counselor will have the ability to decide the type and time-frame of treatment that would be the most effective for you, rather than an employee at the insurance company limiting the number of sessions and the type of therapy you receive.

    • In addition to the following important clinical reasons, not filing insurance allows us to keep our self-pay rates as affordable as possible.

  • Because therapy can be anxiety-inducing, it is not unusual to feel uncomfortable during the first few sessions. As we build a therapeutic relationship, you’ll start to feel more comfortable and at ease.

    You can prepare for the session by completing the online paperwork and client history before hand. It may also be helpful to write down any questions you may have. I’ll start by reviewing the paperwork and informed consent so you’re aware of your rights as well as going over office policies and procedures. The first session is less structured and more laid back as we are building our therapeutic relationship and working together to create goals.

  • Yes! You can absolutely follow my business account!
