Fees/Rates: $140 for 50-minute session. As your appointment time is reserved exclusively for you, I require a 24-hour notice for cancellations to avoid being charged the full session fee. Additionally, I offer a limited number of reduced-fee services and am willing to discuss these options with clients as needed.

Intake Forms:  To best know you and your unique situation, I prefer to engage in a short phone conversation prior to our first appointment. This helps to let you know me a little more and make sure I can best serve you. Once we have talked, I will email you the appropriate intake forms for you to fill out prior to our first session.

Insurance: Insurance companies pose many hurdles regarding confidentiality, fees, and confines to therapeutic interventions. For clients best benefit and treatment, I have elected to not take insurance. Therefore, I am considered an out-of-network provider.  I am happy to provide you with a superbill receipt that you can directly submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. To determine if you are eligible, ask your insurance company the following:

  • Do I have mental health benefits? And do these include Telehealth?
  • What is my deductible and has it been met?
  • How many sessions per calendar year does my plan cover?
  • How much do you pay for an out-of-network provider?
  • What is the coverage amount per therapy session?

Young Adult Children of Late Life Parental Divorce:  “Who am I now that the two people who together made up my origin have gone their separate ways?” -Adult Child of Late-Life Parental Divorce.  I am passionate about working with 18-35-year-olds who have experienced the divorce of their parents during these young adult years.
