FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I begin therapy with you?
​You can email or message me through this site to ask questions or set up an initial appointment. You can also book with me directly from this link: https://ccg.janeapp.com/locations/south-lee-st/book#/staff_member/2. You'll receive a link to your client portal from Jane App before the session. From your first session, you can expect me to be warm, accepting, and actively engaged in the process of helping you. We’ll work together to figure out a plan for treatment that fits for you.
​
What are your hours?
Appointments are available on weekdays. Please call or email me to schedule a session. ​
​
How much do you charge?
My rate is between &150-$175 per hour long session. ​I can, at times, offer a reduced fee based on need.
​
Do you take insurance?
I no longer accept insurance. I am moving to a grant-based model to make therapy more affordable to clients. Please request a sliding scale fee application if needed. It's important to me that cost is not a barrier, so I always find a way to work with clients on what they can afford.
Are there benefits to not using my insurance for therapy?
​Yes! I can better protect your confidential information. Insurance can be limiting in terms of what modalities of therapy, diagnoses, and number of sessions are covered. Self-pay allows me to provide the best quality of care to my clients, gives my clients more control over their treatment and information, and doesn’t require a diagnosis.
Can I bring my baby to a session?
Absolutely! I work with many new moms who need to have their baby with them during session.
Do you offer web or phone sessions?
I offer synchronous video sessions using a secure, HIPPA compliant platform. At this time, I am practicing almost fully Telehealth.
