Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes, I am dedicated to promoting an environment of respect, appreciation, and inclusivity. I work to offer support that affirms the dignity, value, and worth of all people. I am an LGBTQIA+ advocate and ally.
-
I offer both teleheatlh and in person sessions in my Green Hills office. Currently all of my intensive sessions are held in person. Both options have their benefits and I am happy to discuss which would be best for you. Having pivoted to online during the Covid pandemic, I can say this option is effective and offers flexibility in scheduling. For some in person feels more connected and a nice break from the screen
-
I use IVYPay, which is a HIPAA secure payment processing service for therapists. You will be able to upload a debit, credit, or HSA/FSA card to be kept on file. If you ever need to change your card, just let me know during our session.
-
At this time, I do not file any insurance claims and am considered out-of-network for all insurance companies. However, many insurance companies will still cover a portion of out-of-network counseling costs and I am happy to provide you with the necessary paperwork.
Please check with your insurance prior to our work together. You can check your coverage by calling your insurance provider and asking the following questions:
Do you cover any portion of out-of-network outpatient behavioral health/counseling?
How much of each therapy session is covered?
How do I submit the necessary paperwork for reimbursement?
-
If you miss a session without notice, or cancel a session with less than 24-hours notice, you will be required to pay the full fee.
-
Yes, therapy is completely confidential. This means that your personal information and what you share in therapy cannot be shared without your consent. However, there are a few times when confidentiality must be broken in the interest of protecting you, others, or for legal reasons. These are rare but could include:
Imminent threat emergencies, including threats of suicide and homicide
Mandated reporting of situations involving abuse/neglect of a minor, individual, or elderly person
Court mandates or subpoenas
