BEGIN YOUR WELLNESS JOURNEY.

The Order of Operations to Start Sessions

  • Reach Out

    Click the contact me button, and send me your information. We’ll schedule a 15 minute chat (free). We’ll go over what’s bringing you in, pricing, scheduling and any other questions you have.

  • The Consult

    In the consult call we’ll go over what’s bringing you in, pricing, scheduling and any other questions you have. If you feel it’s a good fit, we’ll schedule the intake session.

  • Intake Session

    In the intake session we’ll go over in depth what brings you in, and what you want to work on. I’ll help structure this for you. Together, we’ll map out ways to reach your goals.

  • Continue Sessions!

    After the intake, we really begin the therapy process. This is when your therapy goals will begin to get traction.


What’s bringing you in?

Not everyone knows what they are looking for in therapy, where some others may know exactly what brings them in. I can help either way. Common reasons for coming into therapy are:

  • Feeling TENSE, nervous, on edge.

  • Difficulty sleeping, staying asleep, or having nightmares.

  • Going through a rough patch after a major life event (change in career, schooling, family dynamics, etc.).

  • Processing trauma, or any other event that has effected your day to day life.

  • An overall feeling off “down”, feeling sad, or lackluster about your life.

Psychotherapy- The details

I treat clients residing in Delaware and Pennsylvania. Sessions can be done virtually or in-person at my office in Philadelphia. A typical therapy session is between 45-60 minutes.

I accept Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, and United Health Care. I also offer self-pay rates for 50 minute sessions at $150.00.

Alright, Let’s talk about it.

 FAQs

  • Yes! I take insurance through Highmark and United Health Care. I will verify your insurance information prior to the first session. If you have a deductible/co-pay I’ll run your card at the end of session that is saved on your portal profile.

  • Yes! We can do self-pay rates. For a session I charge $150 for 55 minutes. I also offer sliding scale plans.

  • Typically, we start once a week for session. Ideally, we can meet the same time every week, if possible.

  • If you don’t have health insurance or you plan to pay for health care bills yourself, generally, health care providers and facilities must give you an estimate of expected charges when you schedule an appointment for a health care item or service, or if you ask for an estimate. This is called a “good faith estimate.” A good faith estimate isn’t a bill The good faith estimate shows the list of expected charges for items or services from your provider or facility. Because the good faith estimate is based on information known at the time your provider or facility creates the estimate, it won’t include any unknown or unexpected costs that may be added during your treatment. Generally, the good faith estimate must include expected charges for: the primary item or service, any other items or services you’re reasonably expected to get as part of the primary item or service for that period of care.

    The estimate might not include every item or service you get from another provider or facility, even if some items or services may seem connected to the same service. For example, if you’re getting surgery, the good faith estimate could include the cost of the surgery, anesthesia, any lab services, or tests. In some cases, items or services related to the surgery that are scheduled separately, like certain presurgery appointments or physical therapy in the weeks after the surgery, might not be included in the good faith estimate. You’ll get a separate good faith estimate when you schedule those items or services with the provider or facility, or if you ask for it.

    Your right to a good faith estimate Providers and facilities must give you the good faith estimate: after you schedule a health care item or service. If you schedule an item or service at least 3 business days before the date you’ll get the item or service, the provider must give you a good faith estimate no later than 1 business day after scheduling. If you schedule the item or service OR ask for cost information about it at least 10 business days before the date you get the item or service, the provider or facility must give you a good faith estimate no later than 3 business days after you schedule or ask for the estimate.

    That includes a list of each item or service (with the provider or facility), and specific details, like the health care service code. In a way that’s accessible to you, like in large print, Braille, audio files, or other forms of communication. Providers and facilities must also explain the good faith estimate to you over the phone or in person if you ask, then follow up with a written (paper or electronic) estimate, per your preferred form of communication. Keep the estimate in a safe place so you can compare it to any bills you get later. After you get a bill for the items or services, if the billed amount is $400 or more above the good faith estimate, you may be eligible to dispute the bill.
