FREE INITIAL 30 MIN PHONE CONSULTATION
It’s important you feel comfortable and confident with the therapist you choose. This free initial 30 min phone consultation empowers you to make the most informed decision about your self care. It gives us an opportunity to discuss your current struggle and for you to ask questions and get a better sense of me, my treatment approaches and interactive style. If you decide I am not the right match for you, I can refer you to other qualified mental health professionals.

This is a great alternative for those who could greatly benefit from services, but due to scheduling or intense discomfort, hardship or disability, being present for in-office therapy may be very difficult. Face to face therapy is full of very valuable information for both the therapist and the client, and is always the best modality. Much can be learned about the energy created between two people, as well as body cues like breathing, body movement and eye contact. This modality is not appropriate for a client in crisis.
**Video or phone therapy requires verification of ID prior to beginning therapy.
INSURANCE
Since I am an out-of-network provider for insurance companies, your reimbursement from your insurance company will be lower than from a therapist who does accept your insurance. I am happy to provide you with a claim form at each visit, monthly, or whenever is best for you; which you can then submit to your insurance for reimbursement. The insurance company then issues a reimbursement check to the policy-holder. I have chosen not to be a provider for insurances because they often dictate the pace and parameters of our work together, including type of therapy you receive and number of allowed sessions. This allows you to choose the focus and pace of our work, not the insurance company.
