Frequently Asked Questions

  • Starting therapy can feel daunting and therefore, my goal is to make the process as seamless and supportive as possible. I offer a complimentary 15-minute consultation to help us determine whether my style and approach are a good fit for you. If we determine that it is a good fit, we’ll schedule an initial intake session. During this time, I’ll gather a more comprehensive understanding of your history and the concerns that bring you to therapy, and we’ll collaboratively establish clear, attainable goals to guide our work together.

  • You can reach me anytime via my contact page, email, or phone. I aim to respond quickly—usually within one business day.

  • I am an in-network provider with Aetna. For all other insurance plans, I am considered an out-of-network provider.

    Many insurance companies offer out-of-network mental health benefits, which may cover up to 50–70% of session fees. I provide a detailed receipt at the end of each session that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.

    I recommend contacting your insurance company directly to confirm your benefits. Helpful questions to ask include:
    • Does my plan include out-of-network benefits for mental health services?
    • Do I need to meet an out-of-network deductible before reimbursement begins?
    • What is my out-of-network deductible amount?
    • What percentage of the session fee will be reimbursed for visits with an out-of-network provider?

  • I require at least 24 hours notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours notice will be charged the full session fee.
