Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes, I am in network with Premera, Lifewise, and most BCBS plans. For all other insurance carriers I am an out of network provider.
-
Yes, I offer potential new clients a free 15-20 minute online consultation. It’s a chance for you to get a sense of whether you feel comfortable talking with me, and I will get to hear about what you’re looking for and see if I am a good fit to help.
-
Most new therapy clients meet with me once a week, on the same day and time each week.
In some cases when a client has made progress on their goals but isn’t ready to end therapy just yet, we may move to an every-other-week schedule.
-
My rate is $170 per 50-55 minute session and $210 for an intake session, which includes reviewing documentation and establishing coordination with other providers (if applicable). If you are using insurance, you are responsible for knowing your own costs (co-pay/deductible). If using out of network benefits, you will pay the full rate and I’ll provide a superbill for reimbursement.
-
For most childhood issues parent-focused therapy is going to be more effective than individual therapy. Except in rare cases, I work with parents instead of working directly with the child.
-
Yes. I work with a wide range of issues outside of my speciality areas. We can meet for a free 15-20 minute online consultation to see if we think I’ll be able to help you. If we decide to work together, after a few sessions we can check in to see if it feels productive.
