Q: How do I set up an initial appointment?

A: The first session will be an intake appointment which will last 50 minutes. During an intake appointment, we discuss your history (mental, medical, family, etc), your primary concerns and difficulties, and what led you to seeking therapy at this time. We will work together to develop specific therapy goals that will be reviewed regularly throughout treatment. We will discuss informed consent and confidentiality, situations where confidentiality may be broken, and I will answer any additional questions you have.

A: After the first intake session, all additional sessions will be 50 minutes long. Most clients begin with weekly sessions first, then transition to sessions every other week once they begin to see/feel improvements. Our sessions can be a mixture of discussing recent life events, processing past experiences, and learning new skills to apply to your present life.

Q: How do I set up an initial appointment?

A: With the new No Surprises Act, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” at the start of services that explains 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 1 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. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 800-985-3059.

A: The therapeutic journey looks different for everyone, with varied timing. We will work together to clearly identify your therapy needs and closely monitor your progress throughout our time together, to make sure it is feeling helpful for you. My ultimate goal is to see you get to a place where you are ready to graduate from therapy with new confidence, where you feel ready to continue the changes you’ve made on your own. Graduation from therapy will happen at a pace that feels right for you.
