Making the decision to see a therapist is one of the most important decisions you will make and a step towards greater self-care. The first appointment involves a diagnostic assessment that lasts approximately 60 minutes. The purpose of the diagnostic assessment is to gather the history, discuss the presenting problem and diagnosis, and discuss a plan for treatment goals to be addressed in the following session. We ask that you please print and complete all new client paperwork prior to the first session and provide to the therapist at the beginning of the session. 

*A free 15-minute phone consultation is provided to potential clients to help determine individual needs and appropriate care.

We understand things happen that can delay your arrival or cause you to have to cancel an appointment.  In order to respect other clients who are scheduled to be seen and the therapist’s schedule we ask that you provide a 24-hour notice for all cancellations. 

If you are more than 15 minutes late you will still be charged the full amount for the scheduled session although your session time will be shortened. You may also be considered a no show and have to reschedule. 

Since therapy is a partnership which requires commitment by both client and therapist it is important to be committed to the process. No shows of 3 times will be subject to a reevaluation of therapy.

All of the above are subject to the full session fee in which you will be asked to pay. This must be settled before you can continue with service.

We accept Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), payment via electronic transmission using Zelle, Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Google Pay, Cash App and all major credit card payments for service.

Most insurance plans have behavioral health coverage. It is important that you contact your insurance provider prior to the session to familiar yourself with this process. You may be entitled to reimbursement by your insurance company for these costs, however it is your responsibility to follow up with your insurance provider. Our office can provide you with a receipt and/or superbill for the insurance company. Full payment is required before services are rendered. 

Payment ranges from $110 – $165 per session. Each session lasts from 45-60 minutes depending on the type of session.

There are times when the therapist is mandated to report concerns discussed in session.  Please see confidentiality section under disclosures for more information.

The general standard of practice for a person experiencing suicidal thoughts with an intent and plan to die is to call 9-1-1 or go directly to the nearest emergency room for help immediately. There are certain times when your therapist can assist by helping you through a crisis. This information will be discussed with you during your first session by your therapist.

We believe therapy does not involve “fixing” people and that life happens to all of us. During difficult times we may need guidance from a licensed professional to assist us with pulling out strengths that may be buried inside of us.  It is important to be patient with your individual therapeutic process as it may differ from another person’s process.
