Frequently Asked Questions

Everyone's therapy journey is different and how long you stay in therapy will depend on your specific therapy needs, barriers, and treatment goals. We will discuss this more in your intake session and work together to figure out what is best for you. 

When I first start working with a client, I recommend scheduling sessions once/week for the first 4 weeks. This gives us an opportunity to build rapport and trust faster so you can feel comfortable before diving into the "work" of therapy. After that first month we will reassess frequency based on your individual therapy needs, goals, and barriers. 

Therapeutic relationships and coaching relationships look extremely different. Therapy is clinically focused on mental health and symptom management, while coaching is focused more on personal growth, identifying barriers, and creating action steps to accomplishing your goals. Because of this, I do not provide both coaching & therapy services at the same time to the same client. However, once a therapy client "graduates" and is able to effectively manage mental health symptoms, they can transition to a coaching client if they would like.

Yes I accept Aetna, Cigna and (coming soon) Optum plans for virtual therapy only. Walk & talk therapy sessions and coaching services are not covered by insurance and those will be my self-pay rates. 

See my "Rates" page for accepted insurance plan details and self-pay rates.

There are some situations where virtual therapy/telehealth therapy isn't a good fit for a client. Some examples include issues relating to safety of the client, focus/concentration ability, age, lack of private space or internet, etc. During our initial consultation we will discuss if virtual therapy is a good option for you. 

Just like with virtual therapy, walk & talk therapy also isn't a good fit for every a client. During our initial consultation we will discuss if virtual therapy is a good option for you.
