How do I get therapy services set up?

1. Request a free 15-minute phone consultation

2. During the consultation call we will discuss what you’re looking for in a therapist and what you’d like to address in therapy

3. If it’s a good fit, we will schedule our first session after completing paperwork

How much does therapy cost? Can I use my insurance?

50-minute session | $130

I do offer a limited number of sliding scale spots. I will be happy to discuss this further with you during our consultation phone call.

I participate with most major insurances (BCBS, United Healthcare, Oscar, Oxford, Aetna, Cigna). Your insurance plan determines if you have a base copay or coinsurance. If I’m not in-network with your insurance, you can still choose to see me and submit a superbill for reimbursement (in some cases, insurance covers up to 80 percent).

In order to use insurance benefits, you will need to be given a diagnosis. This diagnosis will be read by all relevant parties within your insurance company and become part of the insurance company’s files. Given all of this, it’s advised to weigh if it would have any impact on you, personally or professionally. Check with your insurance company directly if you have questions about their confidentiality practices.

How many therapy sessions are needed? How often will we meet?

Clients usually meet weekly or biweekly in the beginning of the therapy process. Once you feel more stable or that progress is being made, we can discuss meeting less frequently. I typically recommend a minimum of 8-10 sessions to allow enough time to build a strong relationship and to see growth. Most clients however prefer to work together for longer periods of time.

What if I can’t make it to a session, can I reschedule?

Life happens! Appointments can be rescheduled with at least 24-hour notice. If you do not show up to your appointment or cancel less than 24 hours in advance, you are subject to being charged a late cancellation fee

Are you seeing clients in person or virtually?

Both! In-person sessions are available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Virtual sessions are available Monday-Friday. Clients must be residents of Texas in order to engage in therapy.

What type of therapy style do you practice?

Each client has different needs; therefore, I will tailor my approach to you. My therapy style uses elements of Cognitive Behavorial Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Solution Focused Therapy (SFT).

What is the "No Surprises Act"?

STANDARD NOTICE: “Right to Receive a Good Faith Estimate of Expected Charges” Under the No Surprises Act

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least one business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
