Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How quickly can I schedule an appointment?
A: I have some same-day and same-week appointments available. You will receive a response to emails and text messages within a few hours and usually right away. Or, feel free to schedule your own appointment right here. If you don’t see the time available that you need, call or text me and we will schedule a time that is convenient for you.
Q: My schedule is very busy. Do I have to travel to your office every week?
A: No, you never have to travel to my office for appointments. I offer concierge services to accommodate various situations and busy schedules. Appointments can be scheduled in advance or at the last minute. Online face-to-face video conference appointments means that you have access to therapy or dating coaching when you need it, with no travel time involved. Read more about Online Therapy here.
Q: Do you take my insurance?
A: No, I am not a provider on any insurance panels.
Depending on your insurance company you may be entitled to partial reimbursement for appointments. I am considered an Out-of-Network provider, and will provide you with a special receipt called a “superbill” on a monthly basis. This means that you pay for your appointment at the time of service and you may submit the receipt to your insurance company for possible reimbursement (which they will send directly to you). Some of my clients have received between 20%-80% reimbursement depending on their insurance plan. Please contact your insurance company to ask if they will provide reimbursement for Out-of-Network psychotherapy/counseling.
You may also pay for appointments with your Health Saving Account (HSA) Card, Flexible Spending Account (FSA) card or Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA).
If you do not have insurance, or are not using insurance, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.
Q: How often will we meet and how long does a therapy or coaching appointment last?
A: Appointments are 45 minutes and are generally scheduled once per week. But, this will be personalized to you and your particular situation. We can meet more or less frequently depending on your needs.
Q: When will I finally feel better?
A: My goal is to give you hope from the beginning and new tools to use right away. All along the way you will begin to feel better as we create a roadmap with real tools to improve your life and ways to quell the anxiety. Our work together can help you to know what to do so that your self-esteem grows and achieving your goals becomes easier.
Q: Can I get an appointment now?
A: Yes, Online Therapy is available now. We will meet oner a secure, encrypted video-conferencing platform right from you laptop, tablet or phone. I have systems in place to make this easy for you. You can get the help you need from the comfort of your own home or wherever you are.
