Frequently asked questions.

what are your rates?

$180 for 50-minute therapy session

Do you accept insurance?

I an in-network with BCBS of KS. For all other insurance panels, I am an out-of-network provider. Some insurance plans will provide out-of-network coverage. 

Should you wish to use an insurance policy for therapy, it is your responsibility to contact your insurance company to inquire about specific coverage for out-of-network benefits for mental health services. I cannot guarantee that your insurance company will reimburse you.

Please note that most insurance companies require the treating provider to give a psychiatric diagnosis in order to reimburse for mental health counseling. I can provide a superbill for you to mail to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. Any diagnosis made will become part of your permanent insurance records.

What happens in our first session?

We will use our first session to go over the intake paperwork you will have completed prior to our meeting. The initial session sometimes feels like a lot of questions. It won’t always feel like this, but it’s helpful as we start our work together.

Is doing therapy online confidential?

Yes, we will use an HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform that can be easily accessed through your client portal. This is completely safe and confidential. Your privacy and safety is of the upmost important to me.

can i schedule online?

Yes, you can find my online schedule here.

You can book a free 15 minute phone consultation here.

how often will we meet?

I recommend we meet weekly at the beginning of our work together but it ultimately depends on your availability and your readiness to dive in. If we are meeting less than once a week, it will be difficult to create long lasting change as much of the work we will do requires a level of depth and trust that can only be cultivated by meeting at least once a week. 

Can we meet more than once a week?

Yes, and often this is what is necessary to make the long lasting changes that you are look for. If are submitting your sessions to insurance, you will need to check with your provider to see what they will cover.

what happens if there is a technical issue?

I understand that technology can fail us sometimes. If we are unable to meet due to technical issues, we will work together to reschedule. If it is a recurring issue, I will treat this as a no-show or late cancellation and you will be financially responsible for the session.
