Frequently Asked Questions

What are your rates?  Individual sessions are $160 for 50 min. and are due at the time of booking.

Do you take insurance? I am an out-of-network provider. I would be happy to provide you with a superbill to send to your insurance company so they can reimburse you for a portion of the fee based on your benefit schedule. Please contact them prior to booking an appt. with me to determine whether they cover out-of-network benefits. You may also wish to use the service Reimbursify to assist you in getting reimbursements for your claims; they can simplify the process for you for a small fee (currently $1.99).   When we begin to work together, I can give you a promo code to waive the fee for the first few claims.

Here are some helpful questions you should ask your insurance provider prior to beginning sessions with me:

1. Do you cover out-of-network benefits?
2. What is my deductible?
3. What percentage or cash amount do you reimburse for out-of-network individual psychotherapy with an LCSW?
4. Do you cover psychotherapy delivered via telehealth?
5. What is the usual timeframe to receive reimbursement?

How long does therapy last?

This is a complex question, that depends on many variables.  Ideally, you should be experiencing some relief within the first few sessions.  Depending on how complex the life issue is, some people may find that they’ve been able to resolve their initial concerns within a few months, and feel that they have gained insight and tools to pursue goals on their own.  Others really enjoy digging deep and continuing to challenge themselves towards personal growth with the guidance of a supportive therapist over a longer period of time.  Either approach is fine, we are all individuals with different needs.
