Individual Therapy

“WHAT’S INDIVIDUAL THERAPY LIKE?”

Typically, we’ll meet on a weekly basis with each session lasting 45 minutes. You may come in prepared with something specific that you’d like to address, or without any agenda. Either way, we can accomplish meaningful work.

“HOW DO WE START?”

With an intake appointment. Intakes are typically spread out over two 45-minute sessions. During these appointments, I will do my best to get a sense of what is bringing you into therapy and learn about you. I’ll ask you about your personal history, current symptoms, and your goals. After the intake, I’ll provide you with feedback and a tentative plan as to how we will approach your goals.

THE PLAN IS TENTATIVE FOR TWO REASONS:

YOUR FEEDBACK

What did I get right? What did I get wrong? What am I missing? But also, what feels feasible? What is the most important thing to work on now, and what must we work toward together?

THINGS CHANGE

Life happens while we are working together, and a flexible approach responding to the changes in your life allows me to meet you where you are.

I am an out of network provider, which means that I do not work with any insurance plans or companies directly. However, many insurance policies have out of network benefits that you can use to help pay for therapy. I recommend calling the number on the back of your insurance card and asking them what benefits you have as part of your plan. I am able to provide you with a “superbill” which you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. I accept cash, check, all major credit cards, and HSA cards.

“HOW DO I PAY FOR THERAPY?”

If you would like to learn more about my rates, please reach out via the contact page.

The short answer is no. While I do draw from these modalities, as well as other evidence-based treatments, I do not work in such a structured way. Based on your presenting problem and your symptoms, I will draw from the modality or skill set that I believe best addresses your needs.
