I do not accept insurance due to several reasons. I completely understand that many people want and need to see a therapist that accepts insurance.
However, I strive to make my fees affordable at 130 for a 50-minute session.

I love visiting with my clients in person, but online therapy is so convenient! Being able to visit with someone from your home sometimes makes it much more sustainable.
During our weekly sessions, you need to be in a location that is private (free from children, too) and where you are safe to speak openly. You also need to be able to focus on the session so no driving while in session.
I will be in a private location on my end and we will meet via a HIPPA-compliant video session.

There is no one answer to this. The length of therapy depends on many factors, such as what issues you are coming in for and your preferred pace.
Oftentimes someone comes in with one goal in mind and then the goal shifts during therapy. I like to suggest that you assess therapy at 3 month intervals to see if you are moving forward. You can always decide to take a break from therapy and return when you are ready to continue working.
For play therapy, most complete cycles are approximately 6 months in length.

Our first appointment is different than the rest. We need to make sure that we take care of all of the legal paperwork, and I want to be sure to answer any questions you have about my policies.
After that, I like to get a general idea about what brought you in to therapy. I will also ask you some more detailed questions related to your intake form questions so that I understand the important details of your story and background.

A good faith estimate is a form that I provide to you so that you can estimate treatment time and cost. It is simply an estimate of how long therapy may take and the total costs of all the sessions.
