Frequently Asked Questions
How often do we meet?
Though specific meeting times vary based on our schedules, I typically meet with clients on a weekly, long-term basis, as consistency is key in building the therapeutic relationship and facilitating the healing process.
How much do sessions cost?
My fees are generally set at $200/ individual therapy session and between $240-$290/couples therapy session. I accept cash, check, or credit. Please see the insurance statement below and check with your provider to see if you have "out-of-network" benefits if you are seeking insurance reimbursement, as I am not an in-network provider. Please note that I do not have any sliding scale availability at this time.
Using Out-of-network benefits: Clinical Services may be covered in part or in full by your health insurance plan. Please check your coverage carefully by asking your provider these questions:
Do I have "out-of-network" mental health insurance benefits?
What is my deductible and has it been met?
What is my "co-insurance"?
How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?
What is the coverage amount per session?
Is approval required from my primary care doctor?
In instances where out-of-network benefits are covered, you will be responsible for payment at the time of service and your insurance will reimburse your expenses.
Benefits to Paying out of Pocket:
Insurance companies mandate a diagnosis, oversee your health records, and may seek access to your information while in therapy. They also may limit your coverage to a set number of therapy sessions per year, regardless of what you're going through. When considering the implications of using insurance, paying out-of-pocket is a better fit for some.
Do you offer in person sessions?
At this time, I do not provide in person therapy. All sessions are held remotely over Zoom.
What does culturally responsive therapy mean?
As a culturally responsive therapist, I respond to and center your cultural identities when we explore your unique, lived experience in therapy.
